Microfiction Monday #18....


Susan at Stony River hosts this fun theme each Monday, so do pop over and read the others who have signed Mr. Linky. The rules are thus:



Every Monday Susan will post a picture for the subject of your story. Microfiction means the shortest of short stories. Think Aesop's fables, comic strips, or even jokes: complete stories that can be told in under a minute. For this game, the limit is a tweetable 140 characters or fewer, including punctuation and spaces.


Here's today's picture and my contribution.



Jake decided to stop at Coolville, he hoped it would live up to its name.

He was rather hot and bothered since dumping the hitchhikers body.

  1. With a name like that it probably won't! Of course, the hitchhiker will never know! Good twist.
