Brandon Scott, why is this post under your name?
“Oh, umm, don’t worry about it Fictionmonger. Dylan’s a bit busy. I’ve got the story for you today.”
Is he okay?
“Yeah, he’s fine. More than fine actually. Don’t worry about it. Here, take a look at this.”
Who is Matthew Thrush?
“He’s this writer who’s in the middle of a campaign to try and get his Wattpad book to a publisher and also sent us a story for Friday Fiction. It reminds me of some of the stories I gave Dylan when I first started out on the site. This story is also from his Wattpad account. I thought you’d be intrigued.”
It’s short. Only a few pages.
“Well, yeah. It’s been awhile since you last posted something. I thought I’d give you something easy.”
*The Fictionmonger flicks through the pages.*
I see. Good stuff.
“So…”
So?
“Get on it dude!”
Right!
Hello, ladies, gentlemen, and everyone else, tonight I present to you a short story of one man with an odd affliction. From our new friend Matthew Thrush, please take a moment to explore the creeping sensation that is…
…”The Itch”! CLICK HERE to read!
Thank you very much for stopping by, and, as always, this is the Fictionmonger telling you GOOD DAY, KEEP CALM, and MONGER ON!.
(P.S. You can find more of Matthew over at his Facebook, Twitter, and Wattpad.)
…tuning out.
