Today's story is "Sologamous," which is up over at Untied Shoelaces of the Mind. You can read it by clicking on this link. Untied Shoelaces also has story ranking, so I'd appreciate if you could give me a positive vote.
"Sologamous" is about a man with an unusual marriage request: he wants to marry himself.
Untied Shoelaces of the Mind is a new market for prose. They look for Fantasy, Sci Fi and humor as well as mainstream fiction and non-fiction. They're a semi-pro paying venue, so I recommend my fellow writers check them out.

Holy shit, that was funny! Great post this week. I gave it a 10.
ReplyDelete"I photocopied the original." That killed me. Gave it a 10 of course.
ReplyDeleteI'm speechless as a pumpkin. The breast implants is what pushed me overboard into HAHAHHA land! Very funny, Mister!
ReplyDeleteWill head over... Sounds pretty cool
ReplyDeletecongrats, superbly narcissistic
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! I worry about you, John. Really. That was WTF brilliant! Peace...
ReplyDeleteGets a 10, Mr. Wiswell. Completely too funny.
ReplyDeleteFinally, a loophole in insurance we could actually use.
I'm still giggling. Well done.
It's F. For Frederick.....
ReplyDeletebwahahahahahahahaha
Actually, wouldn't it make more sense to just get one breast implant?
ReplyDeleteReally fun and a great read.
ReplyDeleteDanielle, what a first comment to receive. That was a wonderful first thing to read in the morning. Heartening to read everyone's favorite lines, and Anthony's comparison to Twain over on the Shoelaces site was too flattering.
ReplyDeleteTony, maybe one implant for each of them? A matching set of His and His?
Excellent, and quite funny. The bit with the middle initial was hilarious. Good story!
ReplyDeleteHonestly this ranks as one of your crispest (?) comedic dialogues I've ever come across. Excellent.
ReplyDelete"photocopied the original" had me laughing out loud. That was superb, John! I gave it a 10.
ReplyDeleteYou are a twisted man, sir!
ReplyDeleteThe dialogue is excellent! Oh, goodness, I'm still laughing...
ReplyDeleteThat was a LOAD of fun John! I too liked the "photocopied" line best, and I agree - this does remind me of Twain, who I absolutely love.
ReplyDeleteYour titles always astound me. I think you should throw some out on the storystarters hashtag for us.
Bravo!
P.S. Thanks for pointing us to a possibly paying venue!
Thanks Deanna! Storystarters, you say? Hmm...
