The Other Me

Do try and not eat too much candy!

A (Halloween) Twitter of mine has just been published by 7x20. Check it out HERE
This is my contribution to All Hallow's Read.

I thought I'd give you a little Halloween-ish story...
( Dust bunnies, anyone? )

Meanwhile, I have been mauled by a little geriatric ghoul:

She was young and foolish. Or maybe just suicidal, in the throes of a cruel teen age. The fact remains that, although my husband did all he could to avoid her, she ran into his car. That is that my friends: she turned around and slammed into metal with a dull “bang”; all the better to hide the noise of her young and foolish neck snapping off in the act.

He came back to the car, carrying her body in one hand. She was that young, all feet and feathers, barely a pheasant. We gave her an undignified body bag – a plastic pouch from a nearby supermarket - plotting about doing away with the evidence already.

Fowl pie? Pâté chasseur? Meatballs?
But she was too small and most of us were Italians so it had to be just pappardelle in the end.



( Why yes, it is a recipe... And a story. )

When micro blogging is not a challenge anymore, you can try MACRO micro blogging instead.
Like Woofer. Not 140 characters maximum but 1400 characters MINIMUM.
I just posted my story "Xoc" there for a lark.
You might just want to play with this (provided you have a Twitter account to start with, of course).
What with all the distortions from mini to micro to macro I might need bi- or trifocals soon.
Many thanks for pointing out the toy, Mr. Gibson...

This calls for a picture...
Something extra large.
