Ficlets continues to entertain me. I’ve got about 8 written, and most of them seem to be getting good reviews. It’s challenging to write a contained piece of fiction in only 1024 characters – but when you finish a story and see that little “ficlet nirvana” instead of a count of how many characters over or under you are – it’s cool.
I’ve only managed it on two of them – the others are all under a bit.
Challenges are cool. If you see stories of mine on the RSS feed on the right that have {suchandsuch challenge} in them, it means that I am writing within someone else’s proscribed rules. Usually it includes using certain words (which I usually bold) but it can be anything. These are the most interesting because they force you to write outside your comfort zone.
I’m off back to ficlets now – look for my stories, and feel free to comment and write your own. In case you don’t want to wander over and read my stories there, I’m going to post a couple of them here over the next few days – ones I especially like for whatever reason.
