Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.Here is today's story:
The Quiet Crooks
They were very, very quiet crooks but they weren't very smart.
They could take all your stuff and never wake you up.
They were quiet. So quiet.
The local newspaper said so.
But soon they got caught.
They were not master minds of crime.
But according to the paper they were Master
Since I discovered it was okay I am writing a second flash 55 which will be a continuous story but a complete story every week. Here then is the eighteenth chapter in the exciting ongoing adventures of Sir Laughsalot and Robberhood
The entire story to date is HERE
The most recent chapters are HERE
Sir Laughsalot left his frog in the stable and hopped up to the castle.
He was hardly laughing.
He wanted his horse back.
It was darn hard riding a frog and certainly not a laughing matter.
He really needed Moreless the somewhat incompetent wizard.
Why can you never find a wizard when you need one.
Of course the dragons were busy today you can see them HERE.

Crook or mime, quiet would be an occupational necessity.
Amused, amazed, and awes I am--from reading your 55's.
