A story challenge?

Sep 26, 2011 | Blog

I’ve been toying with an idea for a while… Short stories seem to be my thing, and I also seem to be writing things one paragraph at a time.

So, I was wondering if a story could be written/published on Twitter – 140 characters at a time.

The idea would be to publish an ongoing story, rather than lots of 140 character stories, and set up a Twitter account (and possibly a blog, Facebook page, etc) for people to read the story.

It would certainly be an interesting exercise, but I’m not sure if anyone would be interested in reading it. Also, whether I should continue with the Accidental WAHM theme, or try something else…

So, I thought I’d put it out there – what do you think of this idea/challenge? Do you think it would work? Do you have any suggestions for a topic or theme?

I look forward to your feedback 🙂
