About 100 Words

Posted on Saturday, December 5th, 2009 by thegooddoctor 6 Comments Comments

A Story In 100 Words brings you flash fiction stories on a daily basis. It is an experiment in writing and brevity. Please feel free to comment or to submit your own 100-word stories. Our hope is to build a community of writers and readers who are microfiction enthusiasts.

2026 is going to be a big year for our humble website. Stay tuned for updates. And if you feel so inclined, you can support our endeavors via Ko-Fi. All donations contribute directly to the fees associated with hosting the website and will allow us to expand our offerings, including more contests, writing groups, and other community building actions. Your donation, whether it’s one time or ongoing, means the world. Thank you.

You can also support the site by submitting your own original stories, or purchasing one of my books on Amazon. If you enjoy microfiction, then you’ll love Picasso Painted Dinosaurs, with never-before-read stories mixed in with some of my all time favorites. Other options include Quitting The Grave, a murder mystery set on the Oregon Trail, They Both Loved Vonnegut, a collection of modern fairy tales, and Ahab’s Adventures In Wonderland, a mashup of Alice In Wonderland and Moby Dick.

You can follow us on twitter, though I don’t post there much anymore because of billionaires.

Might I also recommend the Entropy Squared newsletter. Click subscribe (below) if you enjoy reading about:

  • Dinosaurs
  • Robots
  • Robotic Dinosaurs
  • The Meaning of Life
  • Russian intellectuals who need 1000+ pages to encapsulate the meaninglessness of their existence.

I also run the occasional writing contest, share author interviews, or muse upon how fiction writers might save the world.

What I won’t do is spam your inbox. Ever. I’m aiming for one email a month, but don’t hold your breath.

Thank you to everyone who visits the site, submits stories, or has purchased one of my books. I appreciate all of you.

That is all.
