Twitter is a fascinating platform for quick bits of information or nonsense or pictures of Llamas. Each tweet is its own island. Isolated. Contained. Short prose.
But what if one connected the string of islands? Would the road actually go anywhere?
Using my onjejank Twitter account, I’m going to attempt to write a longer form of fiction, 140 characters at a time. Within 140 characters, it should be possible to create enough interest to get a story going, but at the same time to make each day’s read worthwhile. So far, it’s shaping up to be a fairly automatic writing process: write each tweet and let the story go where it wants to – nothing premeditated, no end in sight.
More to come – and follow me on Twitter if you’d like to read what happens: www.twitter.com/onjejank or you can read some of the tweets here at www.onjejank.com.
