(Deflocked for Great Justice, and/or profit.)
25 words, hinting at a story with greater depth. $25 per story (yes, that's $1 per word) to be published in an anthology expected 2010. Am I going for this? Yes I am! And I'm willing to bet that Mr Al, at least, might want to give it a go (knowing that you've tried your hand at twitter stories).
And, in a feat of sheer advertising cunning, you can send three stories rather than two if you link to them. Yes, that's why this is deflocked. Afterall - why the heck not?
