wolF emiT Published by Trapeze

Tuesday, 8 February 2011

Trapeze magazine have published another SF Twitter story of mine today : this one called, for reasons that may become clear, wolF emiT. It's here if you want to have a read. And if you do, don't worry if the story looks garbled. It's meant to be like that, honestly ...

This is the first of three time-travel related stories coming out on Trapeze. And I think it also demonstrates what's cool about Twitter fiction, which I guess some people would dismiss. The central idea/conceit/joke in this little story would rapidly become unbearable in any longer work. I think it could really only work as microfiction. Don't you think?

    Very nicely done, and I see what you mean! Twitter fiction is definitely the natural home for tricksy stuff like this.

    Way cool! It would be very clever IN a book....perhaps as a clue...?

    Words Crafter,

    Hmm, interesting! I'll think about that. I suppose it could be used as a (rather disastrous) ending too ...
