Microfiction Muse

For Microfiction Muse, my pal, Diane, invites us to write a short, short story in 140 characters or less (including spacing and punctuation) inspired by the above photograph.

Below is my microfiction for today:

Dad looks steamed. Maybe he won't be as mad about the wreck, once he sees how I turned his favorite ride into modern art. Fingers crossed.

Who knew? Major bomb. Walk away wreck.. No broken bones. A photographer - journalist, what a story. Truth or dare, who knew?

You wrote a scene right out of my high school days. I got into more accidents in that first year of driving than most people do in a lifetime. In my defense I was forced to learn to drive on a stick shift! And we couldn't afford driver's ed!

Awesome! I love it. Reminds me of something from my high school days. Not a wreck. But my dadai finding out I had fibbed. YIKES!
