This week's Fiction Friday is an example of Twitter fiction - innovative storytelling done through Twitter in 140-character segments.
This particular story, written by Andrea Corbin, follows a "spacewitch" named Em in a short, fantastical journey. The prose is sharp, succinct, and evocative - really a treat to read. It's quite surprising how effectively this medium works to convey the story, working with and around the boundaries of typical writing pieces.
I feel there's no need for the excerpt I typically include, as the whole thing (having been Storified) is embedded below:
Hopefully you enjoyed that little bit of your Friday, and maybe... maybe you'll be trying some Twitter fiction of your own soon? (I know I want to.)
