Friday Night Drabble Party!
"Need Funding"
Hey hey hey!
It’s me! Jake!
You ready for some delightfully twisted microfiction? Good!
But, first… (#butfirst)
Like I said last week, I’m helping other authors get the word out about their books. I have not read these books. Let’s be clear on that. But I don’t care! Helping is about helping, pure and simple. And taste is subjective. I could hate all these books but you may love them. And that’s okay!
But the only way to know is to click those covers and go get you some new fiction!
There ya go!
Oh, and don’t forget to check out Drabble Grabs (Or SlideShow Cinema) on my YouTube channel. Subscribe so I can hit that glorious 500 subscribers mark and get those sweet, sweet ad dollars. Daddy needs a new bag of Doritos! (That’s a joke about how little ad money I’ll be getting. Jokes are funnier when explained. That’s a comedy fact.)
Now, on with the drabble!
Cheers!

Need Funding

“Talking plants?”
“Yes.”
“That’s your pitch?”
“Yes.”
“You want to create talking plants?”
“No.”
“Uh…I’m confused.”
Wallace checked the doc before him. He frowned.
“But this says, in bold and italics, Talking Plants.”
“Yes.”
“But you don’t want to create them?”
“No.”
“Then what’s the pitch.”
“Talking plants. I need funding.”
“To not create them?”
“Right. Because I already did.”
Wallace coughed then checked the doc again. Yep. It was right there at the bottom.
Funding to control talking plants.
“Oh. You already have talking plants and now need to control them. I see.”
“They won’t shut up.”
“Huh.”
