How goes the story, Skull?  Smile

It's going ok. I got like 760+ words so far. The reformed Quaker got me stumped because I didn't know much about Quakers and I had to read about them, yet a reformed one.

I'm not sure how many words this may take me because I still have not hit the living doll, the drag queen, mute duck and the glass of water... but it's looking good. And I'm hoping to post it by this weekend :)

wow I'm finished. :)

This story was inspired from ER's challenge

A range rover
A living doll with a taste for the good life
An Irene Adler drag queen
The Old Quarter of Prague
A reformed Quaker
A mute duck
A suspicious glass of water
And the month in which TS Eliot lost his virginity to Viv.



The story is 4,500 words. Most likely I'll rewrite this story but I'll end up adding 4,000 more words.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
