WELCOME TO FRIDAY FICTIONEERS!
Seize the opportunity to free your muse and allow her take you on a magic carpet ride.
Henry David Thoreau said it best.
“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.”
THE CHALLENGE:
Write a one hundred word story that has a beginning, middle and end. (No one will be ostracized for going a few words over the count.)
THE KEY:
MAKE. EVERY. WORD. COUNT.
THE RULES:
- Copy your URL to the Linkz collection. You’ll find the tab following the photo prompt. It’s the little white box to the left with the blue froggy guy. Click on it and follow directions. This is the best way to get the most reads and comments.
- MAKE SURE YOUR LINK IS SPECIFIC TO YOUR FLASH.
- While our name implies “fiction only” it’s perfectly Kosher to write a non-fiction piece as long as it meets the challenge of being a complete story in 100 words.
- ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
TO THOSE WRITING HISTORICAL FICTION (MYSELF INCLUDED): While WIKIPEDIA is usually a decent source of information, it’s not always reliable one. As a rule, I use it as a jumping off point to other research threads. It’s a good rule of thumb to use more than one source. I speak from experience when I say that a simple 100 word story can bring serious repercussions.

REALITY TV
“I wish my folks were like the Williamses’,” said Cathy. She poked at her ice cream soda with her straw and breathed in the scent of Woolworths’ French fries.
“Aw, they’re just TV phonies.” Doug snickered.
“Look. It’s her!”
At the other end of the counter the perfect mother in starched cotton, pearls and pillbox hat ordered a Coke. With heart-pounding awe, Cathy grabbed her napkin and slipped off her stool.
“Mrs. Williams, I think you’re swell. Could I please have your autograph?”
The actress puffed her cigarette, flashed a red-lipsticked smile and said, “Get lost, ya little brat.”
“Get Lost ya little brat.” is not a good answer to a fan! She obviously hasn’t heard of the rating wars. People will hear of her rudeness to a young girl and before you know it, she’ll be fired and then be living on the streets drinking someone’s leftover Coke out of the trash, and picking up cigarette butts off the ground. Very good Rochelle! You are so clever with your stories! Thank you for the entertainment! Nan 🙂

Good story, Rochelle. Also, very humorous. I wonder if that actor also drinks too much. Otherwise, she made a huge mistake in insulting a big fan. I totally agree with Nan on that. Although in those days there wasn’t as much competition, the stars were given a squeaky-clean reputation they didn’t dare ruin. Well done as usual.

Dear Patricia,
It’s funny that at the time stars had to maintain a clean reputation. I remember reading that Robert Young of Father Knows Best fame was an alcoholic. That was sadly true for a number of stars back then.
In an earlier draft I had alcohol on the actor’s breath but ran out of words. 😉 So you’re spot on. Glad you liked it. Thank you.

You’re right, too. It was easier back in those days for a star to guard his or her privacy. It’s interesting to read their bios in retrospect and say, “Who knew?” Now, for the most part, everything is known.

But oh, how I longed to be in a family where Father Knows Best. 😉

Ah, the realities of reality tv! I like how you went behind the scenes with this one. I suspect this is true of many actors – we are so easily roped into thinking we know them, when really we only know the characters they portray.
There’s been a recent spate of cases in the UK where tv soap stars have been accused of child-molesting and other crimes. I have no idea how these people get a fair trial, because so many jurors must come with preconceived ideas of how the character would or wouldn’t behave.

Dear Jennifer,
In the 50’s and 60’s American TV portrayed families in such an idealistic way. I remember thinking my parents had to be abnormal. I couldn’t imagine Ward Cleaver or Dr. Stone sitting around in their underwear yelling epithets at their perfectly pressed wives. June Cleaver with curlers in her hair? Unthinkable.
It’s kind of sad to look back on these actors to find that their lives were nothing like those of the characters they portrayed.
I hate to hear of the shake up going on in the UK. It’s the same here.
At any rate, I’m glad you liked my story. 😉

So strange reading this today after the dream I had last night, where I met one of my favourite writers and they turned out to be a complete jerk. (Don’t know if it’s true, or just my subconscious telling me that it’s never a good thing to meet your heroes).

I beg to differ, Helena. My hero was also a hero to our nation! A symbol of what we could all achieve if we set our hearts and souls to believe in what “could be”. He was an astronaut in a time when spaceflight was new. I met my hero, fell for him, in fact. I was at an air show running on crutches to get somewhere, and he came out of nowhere and the edge of his shoe caught my crutch sending me head over full-leg cast. Looking back, I can laugh, it must have been a funny scene. Anyway, he picked me up (45pd cast and all) and carried me back to my Mom. After that, he sent me an autographed picture and for many many years, we corresponded back and forth, nothing fancy, just a friendly chat. He has since passed on to heaven’s shores, but he will always be my hero.
