Flash Fiction 55 -Dieing ?

Good intentions never got anybody into heaven the preacher said.
Was he good enough?
But then he wasn’t dead, yet.
He was sinking rather fast. He didn’t think he would make it .
He waited for the word from the man in the fancy suit coat.
Was he going to die or get the

new loan.

Since I discovered it was okay I am writing a second flash 55 which will be a continuous story but a complete story every week. Here then is the second chapter in the ongoing adventures of Sir Laughsalot and Robberhood

Today Sir Laughsalot moved up a chair at King Underwear’s square table. He started at chair twelve and now is seated in chair two. If he would just stop laughing he could be in chair one. He could be top sword in the land, since number one has only one hand and lacks clapping power.

Of course the dragons will be busy today you can see them HERE.


Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

News from Pigeon Falls

The little town in my basement where the trains still run, dragons fly, and life is back to normal Constable Mike had reached the point where he hated to answer the phone. Since yesterday three sheep , three ducks, three pet hamsters, three rabbits, three homing pigeons, and three lamas had been reported stolen. He didn’t even know anybody was raising lamas in Pigeon Falls but they were and they had been stolen. His bulletin board was almost full. The only thing they all had in common was there was three taken. In addition the DNR thinks three moose are missing from the small moose herd in the area and Lois is worried because three of the deer that usually come to eat at the house haven’t shown up for several days. She is afraid either the wolves or the poachers got them. The State Police finally sent a solitary trooper but there wasn’t much he could do. There was no evidence of any kind to send to the Crime Lab. He commended Mike for his good work and left to report to headquarters. There was no real help there. In his spare time Mike is studying Petrovich’s recent translation of Driblet 67. It also has animals in groups of three. Mike decided he had better talk to Herman. The town may need a hero.

Wrap UP

Ella really likes eating out. She studies the menu with great care. You can see she had eggs and toast and is almost done in the above picture.
Had a really great day. I visited people who had posted Friday 55 but not the people who commented yesterday. I will try tomorrow morning. Then Melli came and we played canasta and I won. My sister Dawn called. Pennie came home and we went to Friar Tuck's for lunch, a really great restaurant. Then we went looking for a dairy as Melli wanted to see Cheese made. We found it but it only operated in the morning. I tried to get her to buy a cheese hat for Dennis but she refused. We came back to the house and Pat and the boys showed up. We played canasta and Melli and Betty trounced Pat and I. Now I need a breathing treatment.
