#introduction 🇬🇧 Hello! I'm Albert. I post (mostly SF, fantasy, fantastic) #MicroFiction / #SmallStories in 🇬🇧 and/or 🇫🇷 here. Occasionally, I publish #ShortStories on my website (see my profile). Also: no, I'm not really a frog, except maybe in the sense that I'm French.

C'est assez amusant que cette microfiction-ci ait été likée non seulement par un bot (donc une machine faite pour simuler une réaction émotionnelle) mais en plus, cerise sur le gâteau, ni sur un système de mots-clé, ni en utilisant (berk) de l'IA, ni même au hasard ; juste sur un *compteur*.

No, they were middle-aged men wearing powdered wigs, elaborately embroidered hostess jackets, silk hose, and shoes with enormous buckles and substantial heels. In other words, our Constitution was written and signed by drag queens.

Discworld QOTD, from Wintersmith “That's Third Thoughts for you. When a huge rock is going to land on your head, they're the thoughts that think: Is that an igneous rock, such as granite, or is it sandstone?”

Discworld QOTD, from Guards! Guards! 'People who are rather more than six feet tall and nearly as broad across the shoulders often have uneventful journeys. People jump out at them from behind rocks then say things like, "Oh. Sorry. I thought you were someone else.”'

Discworld QOTD, from I Shall Wear Midnight “There have been times, lately, when I dearly wished that I could change the past. Well, I can’t, but I can change the present, so that when it becomes the past it will turn out to be a past worth having.”
