I discovered a new way to write on Twitter: very short stories. And when I say short, I mean very short, no more than 140 characters. What can you say in such a small space? A lot, it turns out.

I write under two Twitter names. The first is at @CharlieClose. These stories can be about anything, although I often come back to my favorite themes: children, school, music, marriage. Here’s a sample below.

I also write romance stories at @apinchofpassion. Romance stories? Me? Yeah, I’m surprised too. It happened by accident when I suggested to a Twitter friend that she should write short romance stories. She didn’t do it, but I did. Well, I didn’t do it. My good friend Wesley Rakespeare did. He loves all kinds of romance stories, bodice-busters, costume dramas, the bright-eyed girl trying to find love and success in the big city. Have a look at some of his stories.

Enjoy. A little bit of a good thing can be very good indeed.
