Fiction Weekend Stories for 2/17 - 2/19 2012

Rate: 7 Flag

This is the place to read Fiction Weekend stories for this Friday/Saturday/Sunday - and to announce your own piece! 

Stories will be posted throughout the weekend, so feel free to check back regularly for new pieces to read.

If you're participating, announce your piece with its title and a brief description in the Comments section of this post.

This week's prompt was:

Write a story involving an abandoned book in an unexpected place. 
 
 
Or, if that didn't inspire you, you could write a fiction piece on any topic, in any style you want.

Everyone is welcome to join in - if you feel inspired, go for it! 

The only requirement is that a piece announced in the comments be a fiction piece.  

If you're not sure what qualifies as "fiction" in terms of the Fiction Club, please read this  

For information about how to announce a story, etc, please see our "Bio" in the left margin of this page.

You have all weekend to write your story and announce it in the comments section below.

Happy writing and reading!

I take the prompt picture literally in this New York tale. My submission this week is "Waiting for the #6", a play in one act. Comment are encouraged and constructive criticism welcome. I hope you enjoy.
Book of Azathoth is my short story for this week. It is a weird tale in the HP Lovecraft mode, Cthulhu Mythos.
The Winter Box

Mine too is a weird tale. I hope you find it so.
Special thanks to fellow OS-er Gerald Anderson for inspiring this story (in my parallel universe)!

SEE SPOT READ
Wonderful prompts and great tales. My story is "The Misplaced Book" and it is short and spacey.
part 6 of "A Clockwork Concubine" is up

sorry it's not from the prompt, but I hope it counts as fiction enough to mention here
Hi everyone. This story's called "Bitten" and it based on the prompt -- sort of. It's a short vampire story set in Seattle during the 1970's.
I posted "The reluctant Abbot's Tale".

I usually don't do fiction & Alysa suggested I post this here.
Now that's an odd place for this book
Comments and constructive criticism are always welcomed. Enjoy!
