Here's the thing about #drabbles and microfiction: tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak tweak ...
I've written six #FanFiction #Drabbles in one week for a sapphic summer exchange! Partly that's because the prompts are top tier, but I also think #MicroFiction and #FlashFiction might just jive very well with my brain. There's something about the forced word count constraints and relatively low stakes that really gets my muse going.
I wonder if I could hack my brain by treating each scene of my longform fiction like a microfic challenge? #AmWriting #WritingCommunity

Hello #WritingCommunity !
I’m looking for magazines that publish #MicroFiction, #Drabbles, & #50WordFiction in the genres of #ScienceFiction, #Fantasy, & #Horror.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions. And, if you could, please boost.

Fundstück von meiner Festplatte. Zur Erklärung: #Drabbles sind kurze Texte, die nicht mehr als 100 Wörter haben dürfen. #Drabble Feder Satt und zufrieden schloss es die Augen und schlief augenblicklich ein. So neu und einzigartig waren die vergangenen Stunden gewesen, aber auch anstrengend und erschöpfend. Es war gar nicht lange her, dass es aus dem Ei gepurzelt war und die flauschigen Federchen noch nass und verklebt an seinem Körper anlagen. (1/2) #Drabble
