HELLO EVERYONE, may I have your attention, please?! You’ve been patient! You’ve been diligent! You’ve been loyal! Now, for demonstrating such tremendous qualities, such incredible attributes, such unbelievable resolve, you shall be rewarded! Friends, bloggers, Earthlings, lend me your ears! The time has come, yet again, for you to get your proper dose of excitement, adventure, and intrigue! People of the Net, without further delay, I present to you this week’s FRRRRRRRRRRIDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY FICTIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

Sam…

…Sam, play it.

*Cue music.*

We’ve done a lot of high-concept stories on Friday Fiction. Ones where the technology or magic is very obvious, and part of the story in big ways.

But not every fantasy story has to have such flashy moments. Sometimes, it’s nice to settle into a more personal, quieter tale.

And that’s what we have this week.

It’s called “That Old Drum” and it’s a story of the past, of loss, and about the people in our lives—even when they’re gone.
