So I got The Bad News Bug (A True Story) workshopped today and.... Everyone liked it :D I'm going to try to get it published, so I can't post the whole this here, but I will post some. Enjoy!
The Bad News Bug
(A True Story)
The girl in the baggy Neil Young t-shirt wakes up, but she doesn’t seem too happy about it. How do I know that the man on her shirt is Neil Young, you ask? I might be just a little fly, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t read. Besides, when you crash into a Neil Young poster enough times, thinking that reflection in the glass is another fly that can help you escape, you learn who the guy is.
Anyway, the girl wakes up because that tall boy is screaming. He’s in his sleeping boxers -- the bright green ones that hurt all ten of my eyes when I look at them. In one of his hands, he’s got a can of something labeled ‘LYSOL.’ What’s LYSOL? The can is bright orange, and it hurts my eyes like the boy’s sleeping boxers do. In his other hand, there’s a wad of tissues. The tall boy looks like he is ready for war or something. But I don’t see a fly swatter anywhere around, so I assume that he is not waging war against me. Thank goodness.
The story is six pages long.. That's just a bit because I don't want to get plagiarized or have issues with future publishing. What do you think?
