Hi Guys,

I've been writing 69-word, theme-based stories for the digital lifestyle magazine, The Brown Scooter, every month.

Read off and let me know what you think/feel :)


===========================================================================

#55wordstory - Adultery


The word for Feb 7th was 'Adultery.'

---------------------------------------------------------------------

All he wanted in life was adventure, an adrenaline rush.

Had an affair with a neighbour.
Sold electronics in black.
Freelanced for a rival firm.
Bad mouthed best friend.

He tried out every form.
He was still a dull Terry at the end of it all.

#55wordstory - Bookstore


The word for Feb 6th was 'Bookstore.'

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

‘Congratulations on finding the headset, Reader. Put it on and let’s play a game.’
‘By the way, where is your cute little son?’

‘HORROR – Top row. Book 2. Page 27.’
‘MYTHOLOGY – Last row. Book 10. Page 96.’

CCTV control cabin.
A tri cycle. A puppet. An unfinished puzzle.
Two guards. Their favourite pastime.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

#55wordstory - Runaway


The word for Feb 4th was 'Runaway.'

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Legendary bowler’s final match.


“Too much pressure… can’t take it anymore.”
“Chill dude, it’s just a match.”
“IT’S MY LIFE!”

2 Off 1 To Win.

Foot. Heartbreak. Foot. Backstab. Foot. Failure. Foot. Letdown.

The lifeless blood stained body hit the pitch as the seam breached the boundary line.

He gave more just a run away!

#55wordstory - Flawed


Yesterday's theme was 'Flawed'.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

“Woo hoo, my first ever prototypes. This 3D printer is awesome!”
“HE is leaking confidence.”“SHE is overflowing with attitude.”
“So many of my cartridges are missing – conscience, values, morals…”
“Oh damn, it’s malfunctioning. STOP! STOP!”

The entire human race was born. None perfect.
