Hey, people who follow my blog know that once a month I post all the MicroStories that I’d tweeted out during that month. It tends to be science fiction and fantasy related fare because I’m a huge geek. (Allegedly.)

I’ve been pressured by people to release them as an e-book, and I might one day, but at the moment I just like having them available for people to read on the blog.

It’s my three year anniversary of writing flash fiction, so I thought I’d just go ahead and collect them all as an example of my formative years of hinting at bigger stories involving demons, witches, wizards, androids, transhumans, posthumans, orcs, elves, magical weapons, princes, spaceships, robots, aliens, and whatever else struck my fancy in under 140 characters.

Nicola Aukland, on her Sometimes Stellar Storyteller blog, routinely hosts six word story challenges.

Every Saturday, she’ll suggest a topic for the challenge and people are invited to submit a story that exhibits the topic in some way, using six words or less. The winner is chosen on the following Friday by simple numerical count. The story with the most likes wins, provided the story author also liked one of the other story submissions for the challenge.
