55 Fiction - #8


Am setting my foot in the second month of blogging! Last month the same day my first post got published! Now after a month am here with my 21st post and 36 wonderful followers! Thank you once again!

Well friends, am here again with another 55 Fiction! Am so happy that people like my 55 fiction. Its been quite sometime that i wrote one 55Fiction! So, today being Friday planned to publish this one! This 55 fiction getting published on Friday is called "55 Fiction Friday"

Those who are new to this concept, understand what is 55Fiction!? 55 Fiction is a form of micro fiction that refers to the works of fiction limited to a maximum of fifty-five words.Most 55 Fiction works are dramatized so as to get the effect in limited time.

If only I had known before hospitalizing my son for cracked skull.

If only I had known before cracking his skull due to my rough blow.

If only I had seen before hitting my son for scratching the new car.

If only I had seen, he had scratched 'I love you dad' on my car.



I am dedicating this 55Fiction to The Crazy SiD who has gone for a brain transplantation to imbibe still more stupid things to his brain!

Hope you liked this one.. Please do comment on this 55 fiction attempt!

With Love,

Nice story. 21 posts per month is amazing. I could hardly manage one to two per week now adays.

Shruti said...

@Bharathi
thanks for your wishes!
Hope you understood this without reading the comments :P

Bharathi said...

Ha ha. this one is quite easy. You wrote it like 2nd standard rhymes. Most of the times I find it difficult to understand the concept of 55 fiction. Recently I read one in some other blog and I coudnt get it. I read the comments section, every one wrote, 'hey excellent, splendid, wow etc. I dont know if they really understand or if People feign understanding or if they misunderstand or if am really that dumb. No idea :-).

Shruti said...

@bharathi
2nd std rhymes ah?!
romba asinga paduthitengale!!

Hey really i too saw in many other posts comment section, the same splendid,wow!!
But are they reading the posts fully?! I had this doubt too!

Unknown said...

A blow can crack a skull??? I think he must be having brawn Gp's suspension in his hand...he..he....

sry... for talking about f1 here also.. but when i read cracked skull...f1 only came to my mind...

suspension of one car cracked the skull of one driver... it cracked the skull even after wearing the helmets.... the suspension made a whole in the helmet.... a very weird accident....

Amit Kumar Singh said...

it's touching.... :)

I loved it... :)

cheers!!

Unknown said...

@bharathi:even i dont understand some of the 55's.. I ask for explanation if i dont understand.... I thought i am the only dumb fool here....lol..u r there to accompany me now...thanks. ;-)

Shruti said...

@shankz
dai! Ingayum F1 ah?! Mudila da! Nan sonna madri paithyam aaga pora! Freak!!
How a blow will crack skull? Gud question
the boy is jus a kid,tender! A rough blow caused that damage!

@Both shankar and bharathi
both you fellas keep on discussing abt 55Fiction
can't forget your discussions abt the spirit in my last post!!

Shruti said...

@amit
thanks yaar!!

Madman said...

Bharathi said...

Bharathi said...

pawan said...

Shruti,
I have to be honest here. I have enjoyed many of your posts, for their diverse topic dealing and also the unique way you present them with. But this one didn't appeal much to me. Because, the 55 fiction posted here, is very popular. It originated almost a decade ago, and I have known this story since the past four years I guess! I don't say that you plagiarized, but that it was an innocent attempt!

Better luck next time!
Sorry for not visiting your blog in a week, was busy with exams and stuff! And now, I am back!

Anonymous said...

kya likha hai..
55 fiction rockkss..
I seriously think I should try this atleast once..
great going..

Shruti said...

@Pawan
am sorry that you didn't find this post appealing to you!!
Will surely present a much better one next time!!

Hey thats okay yaar!!
I can understand that you are back with a bang!!

Keep Smiling!

Shruti said...

@RSV
only 55fiction rocks eh?!
Not my attempt huh :P :D
Try it and have fun!

Prashansa said...

I like your 55 fiction and all the discussion about it! I think I will also confess that I am a dumb fool and didn't understand many 55 fictions but I have read many which are good and easy to understand!(you,IP,Sid,Vipul's and Shilpa Gerge's last one etc...)But it is fun to try and write them! All the bedt to you for a blog-a-Ton! I am trying to write as well!
Just check my latest 55 fiction.

Shruti said...

@pra
am really glad that u like my post!!
thanks!!

thanks for your wishes for blog-a-ton!!
Best wishes 2 u too!!


Will check them!

Urvashi said...

Hey I hv read this earlier too ...but in the form of a long story.. Nice attempt to put it under 55 Fiction section..... BTW i hd heard of 55 fiction till date bt got to know wat it means jus today... Thanks..

Happy blogging..One month n u hv reached far way gal...... :)

Shruti said...

@urvashi
Hi :)
welcome to my blog..
""Nice attempt""
thank you so much!!

""i hd heard of 55 fiction till date bt got to know wat it means jus today""
Glad that you learnt about 55Fiction through my blog!!

""One month n u hv reached far way gal""
Thanks re!! :)

S said...

Well, a long read .. but an interesting one ... to be honest you could have made it shorter! No one now has so much time to read such long posts ... and neither is anyone so honest with their comments! I'm not a critic or a reviewer, just wanted to tell u this !

Your 55 word story is the best way to summarize any issue, U have ur own TALENT of hitting the spot with sharp words, U don't need essays to support what u say !

I don't believing in comparing times 'then and now' .. situations, students, level of competition, money matters, etc then were absolutely different(as you've said too) from now what it is !

And it's not actually right to compare a set of people from a profession, we still have lovely teachers around .. they give their best, do what they can to read a students mind and give their opinion honestly ! Teachers are individuals too, don't take up it as an issue, they had some usless teachers back then too, ask your parents they would obviously tell you !

Again loved Kevin and the mam's story, which was a 55 !!

Good teachers don't teach, they guide you .. they make you learn the right thing in a manner that you can have them in your mind all your life, not only till your next semester exams !

Then or now, we'll always have great teachers and the next best and most respected people after parents ! :)

Hope I wasn't rude, and I made my point clear, it's always my pleasure to read you more ! :)

Sourav...in love with me and life

take care !

Shruti said...

@sourav
Took your advice and will try to reduce long essays!

Glad that you liked my 55Fiction!

Sh@s said...

Wow! 22posts in jus two months. Am still stuck at 22 even after three n half months.

So, should i call you 'Queen of 55' or 'Miss 55'from now on....lolzz

Shruti said...

@Shas
22 Posts in one month!!

Be in home 24x7 and if boredom haunts you, you will end up writing even a post a day,accounting 30 posts per month!! :)

""should i call you 'Queen of 55' or 'Miss 55'from now on""
lolzz!!!
I shall be happy to get crowned as 'Princess of 55 Fiction!!'

S said...

I'm sure you had make out what mistake I did, instead of posting on the last post, I posted it here !!

Sorry .. the poor silly me I am :P

Shruti said...

@sourav
again you have did the same!!
But thats ok!
Atleast from next post don't forget to write comments on the respective posts!!

But the narration is great.
