They say you should never talk about politics or religion…
So, challenge, challenge, who wants a challenge?
In honor of my 403rd ficlet, a challenge…....
Write a political satire. And if you don’t know what satire is, look it up. And while you’re at it, look up political too, because somehow it has strayed away from its original meaning…
Anyway, write on dear Ficleters!
About the author

There are those who say that life is like a book, with chapters for each event in your life and a limited number of pages on which you can spend your time. But I prefer to think that a book is like life, particularly a good one, which is well worth staying up all night to finish. —Lemony Snicket

This summer I am reading, writing, counting days, and allowing the cat to steal my shrimp. Feel free to join in.
Most of my Ficlets are inspired by books, Billy Joel, or Jack Johnson songs.
I am anxiously anticipating Breaking Dawn and Inkdeath due in August and October, respectively.
If you haven’t already, you simply must see I’m Reed Fish, In America, and Bon Voyage.
“I was born in ‘49, a Cold War kid in McCarthy times. Stop ‘em at the 38th parallel, blow those yellow reds to hell. Cold War kids were hard to kill under their desks in an air raid drill. Haven’t they heard we’ve won the war, what do they keep on fighting for?”—“Leningrad”, Billy Joel (Part of the Billy Joel Posse with T. F. Torrey, pens&feathers, and BARomero.)
