Micro Fiction – A Life in 100 Words

Red-Blue: Micro Fiction at The Big Windows Review

Red-Blue… Micro Fiction Goes to Print

Let’s welcome another edition of Red-Blue… Micro Fiction just published by The Big Window Review. Red-Blue tells of a man in space, a deadly threat, a terrible choice, getting it done in 100 words or less.

What, I hear you asking, is micro fiction? Also known as drabbles, these are miniature stories, a complete tale in less than 100 words, 50 words, or even a single sentence. Yes, a story in but one sentence. Witness Hemingway’s famous example: “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.”

Red-Blue first appeared as an online feature on The Big Window Review website. Now, it is part of the current issue, BWR 40, which is a free PDF download. Grab your free copy today!
