Nov. WTF #8 - The Writing Bit...
Here's how you tell a story (instead of showing it.) Monsters took over the local arcade. They were charging one baby per person to get in, but the machines were all set to "free play." Many thought this deal was worth it. The End...
I once saw a rabbit in the backyard. It was not having a good day. I tried to offer it a Moscow Mule, but it said it had given up drinking, and it left looking sad.
Mariah and I have taken out an advert in the classifieds. "Looking for Aliens or other Multi-dimensional being who are into removing humans from one reality and taking them to another. Artistic entities encouraged. Willing to relocate."
Might be all I've got for now. (I was out of coffee for a few days, so I've got a nasty headache... I'm DRINKING a coffee now, and that should make the pain go away...) Thanks for stopping by!!!

"Mountain Climbing (Without Mountains)" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, brush pen, and liner pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color tweaking...] I've heard it said, "First there is a mountain. Then there is no mountain...and then there is..." Some people are insane, but that's just one perspective...

"How To Stop From Being Eaten" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen on paper, digital drawing, and layers compiled in a free app on my phone.] If a non-human entity goes around the neighborhood handing out pamphlets on how NOT to be eaten, maybe take the advice with a grain of salt... Maybe with a teaspoon of salt... plus two eggs, half a stick of butter (not margarine), and a cup of whole milk... Mix thoroughly and bake at.....

MICRO PLAYS (My new favorite thing again...):
"Chocolate Bar" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
Scene: Curtains open. Late at night, or in a world with no natural light. A skinny, frightened, possibly male figure sits on a park bench beneath a lighted LAMP POST. From stage left, a brawny but feminine figure walks onto stage and sits by the male figure.
KATKAT (the feminine figure): You are experiencing distress. What is the cause?
LAZLO (the possibly male figure): I have only one remaining chocolate bar.
Previously unseen lights on the park bench begin to glow and strobe.
KATKAT: My goodness. The Apocalypse is upon us, most likely because of your chocolate deficiencies. I hope you lived a good life.
LAZLO: I did not.
The lights on the bench go out (but the LAMP POST remains lit.) Both figures stand in unison, clap three times, and explode into a cloud of glitter.
VOICE (from off stage): We ask that you, in the audience, hold what you have seen here in the deepest of secret recesses. If you do not, we will hunt you down and force you to take your admission money back.
The lights on the bench go berzerk again. The LAMP POST may walk off stage at this point if the actor playing this character has another gig to get to.
VOICE (from off stage): Now leave...
All lights go out and curtains close. END.
