Friday Night Drabble Party!
"Payday"
Well, hello there!
Nice to see y’all have returned for more fun. AND IT IS ALWAYS FUN HERE AT THE OL’ FNDP!
Not sure why I was yelling. Just felt right.
Anyhoo, check out the book below. Let me know what you think. I’m not sure if sharing all these books helps y’all find new books or not, but hey, it helps some authors find readers.
We’ve had this one on before, but it’s always good to give a book another shot.
Alright, so something a little different this week.
A poll! And not a political one! Yay!
All of my short stories on the Scary Horror Stories by Dr. NoSleep podcast are eligible for the HWA’s Bram Stoker Awards. Now, since I am cranking those out, I’d rather not fill out a form for each and every one. Hence the poll!
Let me know which ones you dig by giving them a vote. I’ll take the top ones and submit those. Don’t worry if none of these are your absolute faves. I’ll be putting out more between now and the November 30th deadline. So many stories!
Oh, and hey, please share this post with your friends, family, and enemies. It’s free to do and only takes a second. Thanks!
Now, on with the drabble.

Payday

The man walked into the bar like he owned the place.
He used to. Not anymore.
“No, Cole,” the bartender said, pointing to the door.
“Just here for a drink, Nolan,” Cole said as he sat down at the bar.
“You know what day it is,” Nolan said, still pointing. “Get. Out.”
“Day? What day is it?” Cole asked, his faux innocence almost painful to hear.
“You know,” Nolan said, still pointing.
A shot rang out from the backroom and shouting erupted through the walls.
“Oh, wait,” Cole said with a wicked, knowing smile. “Now I remember. Today is payday.”
