I love writing in a variety of genres, so I experiment in many. I like to try and come up with funny little stories that I hope will bring a smile to readers' faces and Gordon Bunker ~aka Gorilla Face is one of them.
I love Writing.com and have been a part of the site for many years. I'm not as active as I once was on the site because of work, but I'd love to be. This site is where this silly little story got its start. I entered a contest on the site with a writing prompt that included certain words that had to be used in the story. Sadly, I don't remember exactly which words, but from that spark of inspiration, this story was born.
I do recall that the duct tape and the orange vest were most likely some of the contest's must-use items, so I thought about how I could do that. That's when I came up with the idea of a boy using these as protection against a bully. I had to come up with other ideas of course, like the platter to protect his crotch and a reason why the protagonist was targeted by a bully. But it all came together into a fun piece of flash fiction.
You can the story here.
I hope you enjoy it.
Happy Reading!
