This year I've decided to concentrate on writing short as well as long. I've been writing a crazy number of new stories, not all of which will see a polished draft. Many of them are the usual 2000 word length but I've been writing some very short ones as well.
If you are interested in short short stories, I recommend Holly Lisle's method to get the creative juices flowing. Hers is not the only way, but if you like to plan out your stories, this may work for you: How to Write Short Fiction That Doesn't Suck.
So far I've entered four contests in the past two months.
I've included the links for your information.
For poets and poetry fans, I've also posted a couple of my poems recently on Wattpad which you can read here.
The titles are:
(Short listed by the Science Fiction Poetry Association Contest)
(About plastic and the marine garbage patch)
Happy reading, and writing.
