Flash Fiction Friday: Bowling Robots and Crazy Gnomes

Posted by Rusty  Published in 2000's, Flash Fiction, Funny, Good for Kids, Online, Printable, Very Short

 

Today I present you with a couple of funny stories from the great SF flash fiction site Antipodean SF.

Robotron Strikes Again By Jake Wickenhofer and Greg Wickenhofer

What would it be like to go bowling with a destructive and paranoid robot? Probably interesting – to say the least! Hopefully the bowling alley will survive!

Read Robotron Strikes Again online for free.

Figment By Matt Tighe

What is a man to do when he wakes up in the morning and finds a tree growing in his carpet and a Gnome talking to him? Well, he does what anyone would probably do – he freaks out! But it is the Gnome’s reaction that is even more interesting.

Read Figment online for free.

If you enjoyed these stories be sure to check out another Greg Wickenhofer story – The Home Team – or any of the other Flash Fiction stories I have reviewed.

Have a great weekend!
