Microfiction Monday # 12


Welcome to Microfiction Monday,
where a picture paints 140 characters.
Susan over at Stonyriver hosts Microfiction Monday.

Here's this week's picture, and my story to go with it:



How am I going to get my pirate ship from LA to Bourbon St
in time for Mardi Gras
mused Johnny Depp

I know, I'll go ask Alice


(FYI If there are any J.D fans in Microfiction land, Alice in Wonderland opens March 3rd :) )

The rules are simple,to use Susan's picture she posts then compose a story up to 140 characters including spaces and punctuation.
Then hop on over to Susan's and leave your name. She even has a brilliant character counter to help us count.
As Susan promises, it's fast, it's fiction, it's fun!
