Here are a few examples:

Dribbles and Drabbles -

FORTUNE TELLING

 Am I psychic?

My husband thought so.

Yet he didn’t believe me when I foretold he would end up poor and alone.

My prediction came true; he left me for another woman.

But once she knew I had all his money she in turn left him…she lives with me now.

 This is a dribble of 50 words

COVER UP

‘Bit over the top for a kid’s party,’ snipes Dee, looking at her sister-in-law.

‘That’s Jade, any excuse to dress up’, laughs Russ.

‘But an evening dress?!’

‘Our daughters think she looks like a princess’, he says defending his sister.

Dee watches her girls enthralled by Jade twirling before them in a long silver, shimmery creation and can’t rein the spite in.

‘Well, at least it’s full length and she’s got her tits covered,’ she snaps.

Meanwhile, Jade, aware of Dee’s disapproval, continues to entertain the children happy the dress is hiding the bruises her husband inflicted the previous night.

 This is a drabble of 100 words 

HAIKUS -

The haiku is a Japanese poetic form that consists of three lines, with five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, and five in the third. Jacqueline has used this form to create stories (nano-fiction).

PERSONAL CARE

Short back and sides sir?

Asked the beauty therapist

No. Back, sack and crack
