#1 Sibling Rivalry

“Were you an only child?”
“Eventually.”

Hello

It’s one of the many problems of being a writer, everything takes so bloody long. From idea to completion is a small eternity and even the shortest short story is likely to set you back a couple of weeks.

So what’s writerly chap to do? Well in the age of instant gratification and diminished attention spans, the only real response is to explore the short form, well, the really short form and hence 101VeryShortStories was born. 101 stories each of less than 150 words. Wonder how long it’ll take to get to 101 of the little darlings?
