Drabbles, weird short stories, and other cheap drivel

I'm a terrible writer. You don't have to take the time to tell me. I know. Quality? I write without that! But quantity? Darlin', I’ve got that in spades.

Hmmm, so how can I write more crap in even less time to annoy everyone on Lemmy? This comm will mostly be Drabbles, which are tiny stories that are exactly 100 words. Not 99. Not 101. One hundred. Like a hitman with a word count contract. (Which I've broken in this sidebar.)

A few other flash fiction and weird-ass short short stories may be posted as well.

These are pulp shots fired straight from my brain. No filter, no brakes, no shame.

Love 'em? Hate 'em? Doesn’t matter, because I’m posting them anyway.

Read fast. They bite.

Anabelle and the Clurichaun - written by Universal Monk.

Anabelle was walking in the park and noticed something strange. She scooped it up.

“A tiny dragon!” she said.

“Nope. I’m a clurichaun. I’ll grant a wish if ya let me go.”

She glanced at a nearby bird singing in the breeze.

“I want to fly!” she said.

Poof! She shrank. Wings fluttered.

“I’m a fairy now!” she said. “Thank you!”

“Now you have to worry about stuff that you didn’t have to think about before.”

“Like what?” she asked.

“Everything. Especially birds. Birds love to eat fairies.”

Anabelle looked up. The birds were louder now.

And much, much closer.
