See no Evil

. One of the traits of the Three Monkeys. We continue into the last week of the Australian holiday season with a beach story. Short and Sweet. Or is it?  We have a beautiful beach, a handsome man, romance. What could possibly go wrong?  Enjoy. 

Note: On our last post we promised you the dramatic Sound of Silence. Apologies. It will definitely come next post.  We just thought we would keep the holiday mood going as long as possible.

 

Keeping up with Mr. Jones

Keeping up with Mr. Jones is better described as a yarn than a story. Not ‘a shaggy dog story’. By tradition, they are long and multi-directional. This is short and focused. And keeping in line with the season just past, leaves a nice warm fuzzy feeling with you as you come to the end of the simple tale.

We introduce a new reader to fastfictionpodcasts. Trevor Bell first appeared in A Day Too Long, and later, An Ordinary Couple. Keeping up with Mr. Jones is his first narrative, and we think his voice is ideal for yarn spinning. If you want to know a little more about him, go to the Rogues Gallery.

While we like to think this is a ‘nice’ story, our next one will be ‘nasty’. Indeed, The Sound of Silence may keep you awake at night. So ensure you sleep well before we release it. Take care.

The Straight Line

The Straight Line is a perfect podcast for the first day of January.  A day when resolutions are made and people look forward with good intentions for the following year. But this little story isn’t really about resolutions, although it does relate to new beginnings. And that’s all I will say, other than a strong suggestion you stay right on to the end. Because, although we have listed it in your LifeInTheSlowLane series, it will certainly make you think. Which is an excellent habit and past-time to undertake all through the year, as well as the first day.
