Microfiction Monday – Hee, Haw, Ma and Pa

My Story:

Being very reclusive, Bob sometimes lost his grip on reality but he had a rude awakening when mom and dad came for a visit.

Do you wonder about e-publishing? Do you have some questions you’d like answered? Author, Shelley Munro from Taste of Kiwi passed on this link: Everything You Always Wanted to Know About E-Pubs (But Were Afraid to Ask…) By: Vivi Andrews Very informative.


I have to apologize to everyone for the title of my last post. I read an article on blogging that said you should find out what the popular key words are for searches and put them in your blog titles. All of the top ten Google searches for Saturday were related to the race.

    Did the title help bring anyone in? Frankly, I didn't think anything of it.

    Ma and Pa are so cute with those big, dark eyes.

    I love the donkey photo. :) For some reason I had problems commenting yesterday. I don't know what was wrong.

    I'm glad you enjoyed the article on e-publishing.

    I did the popular title thing three times: Anna Nicole Smith Autopsy Pictures, which reached 4,000 hits before I moved the blog but only a few hundred since. Michel Jackson Autopsy Picture, which embarrasses me to this day and never did well at all, and Table Setting, Various Styles, which is doing great though it's nearly a year old.

    I might do more, but I'm in no rush.

    A visit from mom and dad is a good way to get a dose of reality.

    Dude, these drugs are like far out. Yes I know it's Wednesday but my employer unreasonably expected me to work on Monday and Tuesday so no time free except to sleep and even that down to 5-6 hours! Inspired by Shakespeare this week. My Micro Story
