Would just like to share here that I've won the Scottish Book Trust's 50 Word Fiction Competition! The prompt was to write a piece of historical fiction in no more than 50 words- thought some would be interested after the recent historical fiction competition on this site. You can read my entry here: http://scottishbooktrust.com/writing/love-to-write/the-50-word-fiction-competition Any feedback would be much appreciated!
It was quite challenging to write a story with such a short word count. Have you read/written any flash fiction? My favourite one I've read so far is attributed to Ernest Hemingway: For sale: Baby shoes, never worn.
You've just proved that less is more. Congratulations, love your short story. A worthy winner.
Thanks for sharing your success.
Well done Jenna, I've checked it out, your story conveys so much in so few words! I SEE the competition is open to all UK residents, so may give it a go.
Just read your entry and love it! 50 words is so little but you made an amazing impact.Well done and tempted to give one a try!
