Signs – Friday Fictioneers

Published by

on

A late Friday Fictioneers entry this week. The challenge is to write 100 words based on a weekly photo prompt chosen by our headmistress Rochelle Wisoff-Fields. Mine are always 100 words exactly (sits back smugly, awaiting praise). Check out her blog for more information by clicking here. Thank you to all who take the time to read, like, or comment. I’ve been lax at responding recently. This will improve.

Signs

People said he was crazy. Perhaps he was. I mean, who spends thousands of dollars on a classic car just for the number plate? But he also had a gift for reading signs. The kind the universe sends you. That was the reason he had thousands of dollars to spend in the first place.

BF 19

This particular sign had caused an air-raid siren to go off in his head. Everybody knows the popular abbreviations of BF: Best Friend, Boyfriend, etc. Not everybody knows that it also stands for Beginning of Fallout. Jonah did. And he intended to be prepared.

    Dear Thom,

    I know a man who looks for signs in everything. He makes us all a little crazy. 😉 Good take on the prompt, nonetheless.
    Your adherence to the word count is much appreciated. I look forward to your greater participation. 😉

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    I’m a real sucker for signs, portents, and hidden connections. I don’t believe in them, but I love reading about them, See my own story this week for more signs
