The Omen: Ficlets Style (Wonderful World of Ficlets Challenge)

I was introduced to Ficlets by my Mom, who just happens to be a fellow Ficleteer, Judee4u2. I wasted no time in signing up, even before I read a single published story.

That fateful first day, I spent hours perusing through hundreds of stories and comments. I was an instant addict.

I also spent the first day writing. My first four Ficlets were written on that day. The very first one is titled, One Thing Remains The Same.

I should have seen that as an omen. After all these months, one thing remains the same: I am still scouring Ficlets as if it were new to me.

I can hardly wait to sign on in the mornings to see what is new from when I went to bed at night. When I have been away during the day, I am anxious to find the right time to pull away from my family to check in.

I find myself thinking about Ficlets when driving. I can honestly say that it is extremely hard to jot a story idea on a napkin while holding the steering wheel. Especially when the kids are yelling to watch the road.

    I completely relate to this ficlet. Well, except for the kids part – don’t have those yet, unless students count. Ficlets is lucky to have you, Jenunique.

    I agree with Ana Cristina! I can’t wait to see what people think about my ficlet, and I enjoy writing them as much as I like reading comments. : ) My parents are members on Ficlets, too… _
    Great entry, overall!

    This was really good! I can relate too, except I do not have kids…..but do annoying little brothers count? Nice job!

    Hilarious picture of writing on a napkin while driving! Mine aren’t old enough to complain, and I don’t have any handy napkins to write on while driving, so I have to hang onto my ideas until I get home!

    I relate to this entry completely. Even the writing on a napkin part. I wrote my Easter ficlet on an offering envelope at church! Doh, I should have saved that for my entry.
