Revenge of the Return of the Children of FICLY and other flash fiction

Quoth

Once upon a time, there was a website called Ficly. It was a peaceful place where burgeoning writers could post their tiny stories and have other people rate them. Sometimes people even wrote prequels or sequels to each others' work.

And then, SE++ invaded. It became a screaming chasm of anarchy and despair, punctuated by flashes of brilliance. The people of Ficly were cowed and fled in terror, hiding in the depths of secret writing caves until their new overlords grew bored and left. Slowly, Ficleteers emerged from their safe houses, but Ficly was never the same again.

And now, SE++, we must finish what we started.

Nah, just kidding. Don't make this a damn raid again, you Zeus-y geese. Yes, I just called you avian rapists. Get on over there and write a little story or two and let's have some good clean fun. If you need ideas, check out the Writing Game thread over in the Writer's Block for the Word of the Day.

Stop reading and start writing! And then go read what other people wrote.

Hit me with a herring if you want to be added to the list below.

A Dabble Of Thelonius

I should really try to shake this whole "haven't written anything at all in seven months" thing.

Quoth

Yes, yes you should.

So, you know. Get on that.

Butler

nnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooo

Olivaw

I remember this

I also remember when we stopped and didn't go back because it had become a weird circlejerky kind of thing between some people

Or at least I think that was the issue

Uriel

I had one of these I don't remember how to sign in.

Quoth

I dunno, CD told me to make a new thread so I did. I'm writing something right now anyway SO THERE.

The Lovely Bastard

I would write something, but I am too busy making out with my monroebot

A Dabble Of Thelonius

Well I see the trend of completely missing the point of a character limit is still rolling on.

Centipede Damascus

that's right, Quoth does whatever I say

thanimations

I already feel guilty enough that I haven't finished my Friday Flash, and now you have to bring this back?

Burning Organ

Maybe I will write something new.

But I doubt that.

Olivaw

I'll probably write something but not now because it is the 4th and I have to spend most of my time saluting or pledging allegiance or something

Burning Organ

I thought you were Canadianeese?

Olivaw

Only for about six months, actually!

Currently I am New Englandese

A Dabble Of Thelonius

I'm going to write a 6,000 character story and break it into 6 parts.

Quoth

Here you go, have a story: http://ficly.com/stories/19008

A couple people were being kinda dickish, but overall it was just that they had a feel good vibe going and we came in and started actually critiquing shit. It went poorly.

Muse Among Men

Are we doing this again?

Charles Kinbote

ohhhhhhhh,

god

Quoth

you don't have to do anything you don't want to, gosh

i am not holding a gun to your head or anything

what do you mean what about this gun

Gumpy

If only my idea of writing wasn't writing the world Explosion and then underlining it several dozen times

Muse Among Men wrote: »

yes

Burning Organ

I'm not in the list, but that's okay because I didn't write that much anyway.

VoproSTEIN

Hey look, my first story.

Charles Kinbote

good, the number one story is about incestual twins but fails to actually do anything more than sketchily illuminate the concept

good, flash fiction. thanks
