The Friday Fictioneers, are a group of writers that come together, once a week, to share stories they have written based on a photo prompt. Go HERE to read or submit or your own story, or click on the little blue guy under my story. Those not familiar with the various parts of stringed instruments may miss a few references, but it’s what I went with this week.

“Stop fiddling around!” She squealed, “you’re gonna scratch my fingerboard!”
“Will you shut your F-Hole already,” he growled, “I didn’t ask to be here!”
“And…quit staring at my bridge, look at my head stock when talking to me!”
“Hey, why don’t we head to the bass bar and get to know each other?” He hummed.
She had to admit he vibrated her stings a bit, but he was so young.
“Aw, come on, you turn my keys with a glance and you know it.
She spun on her end pin and saddled up for a date. Weeks later they moved into The Monticello.
Musings From the Turnip Patch 
Very clever…well done
Thank you. Not a direction I take too often, it was fun.
I was smiling through out but the Monticello line made me COL (chuckle out loud).
Thank you, the Monticello line actually made me groan, but I had to do it!
I’m still groaning…
hhehehe
haha this is very clever! ^^ enjoyed it
Clever, Clever, Clever… humming and vibrating, indeed.
Thank you, pure corn for sure.
that’s the second story with “f-hole.” this is gonna be a gooooood weeeeek! well done.
Hmm, Rich’s naughty side sneaks out. 🙂 Thank you.
i don’t hide it!
And a few months later a violin was heard crying. I love this piece. Well done with the double bass parts.
Aloha,
Doug
Thank you. I really had fun with this one. Making short comments tonight cause I want to get back and read the rest of the stories.
Dear Turnip,
And a loud groan is heard in Missouri. Just remember, there’s always room for cello. Cute story.
Shalom,
Rochelle
I heard more than one groan LOL. Who knew doing corn could be so fun!
hah! Very clever. Curious to know if there were any instrument parts that you couldn’t squeeze in??
Yeah, I had to leave a few out or I would have gone WAY over the 100 word guideline.
I didn’t get the Monticello line until I noticed the italics. Glad you put them in for slow people like me 🙂
Hi Turnip,
Aw, I bet they’ll make sweet music together. Show you can cococt a love story out of most anything. Do turnips fall in love? Ha! Ron
“Sweet music together?” Another groan is heard LOL. Nice. Of course turnips fall in love, where do you think little turnips like me come from?
This is great. So much fun. 🙂
Thank you!
LOL, she commented in her musical voice. Just the right tune. The humorists are out in force this week and doing their side proud.

This was a fun one. I still have many stories to read, off I go!
I know what you mean. Sometimes I’m afraid to hit refresh because there might be more stories and I don’t have time to ready them then.
The last line got me. A fun story and a delightful conversation.
Pure corn, but fun.
Hahahaha! A great ending line. Now we know where fiddles come from.
“little fiddles,” and the groans continue lol. Thanks for reading.
Monticello made me groan – but it was a happy groan (if there is such a thing). A fun tale! 🙂
I liked this, but this was the second F-hole reference which forces me to ask, is there an a-hole?
There is Bill…and I have been called it more than once…Lmao
Turnip,
This was a fun piece. A lot of comedy coming out of this photo prompt…A woman who will saddle up for a date is all right in my book! Thanks for the laughs!
Tom
Looks like I’m not the only one spending a little more time on research this week 😉 Fun story, well done.
I like to laugh, and you gave me a good one. Well done, Ms Turnip
Clever, very clever indeed and it’s great to have a wry smile as I imagine how the ‘date’ may have gone 🙂
Very laughable, it was a picture meant for puns. Well done
I loved it! I like the “She had to admit he vibrated her stings a bit, but he was so young.” You did a fine job humanizing the instruments.
Made me chuckle. I was touched by the same like as Bumble. Very clever. Great piece.
This is very cute! loved it.
Loved the play on words. favorite line: “She had to admit he vibrated her stings a bit, but he was so young.”
A woman after my own heart.
