Pet Names, A Short Story Oh So Sad ... Yeah, Right by Zacharias O'Bryan
Monday, November 22, 2010
Rated "PG13" by the Author.
Start with two cups of Southern bosom-heaving romance. Stir with an ounce of Douglas Adams' "Hitchhikers Guide" sci-fi. Fold lightly with a shiny blue roadster that apparently hatched from an egg. Cook it over the flames of fondness between Amanda and Sergei. (Oops! ... I meant to say "Miss Backseat Pleasure" and "Shoogie.") -- and have a little fun.
Celeste Drolle is the pen name under which my humor stories are presented. Pet Names is Ms. Drolle's ten minute spoof on both bodice-ripper romance and science fiction -- and that's only the beginning of its problems. But because it's free, all you're risking is one sixth of one hour of your extremely valuable life. Hmm ... on second thought, perhaps you should read something else.
