Can you tell a story in less than 250 characters? This is a collection of some of my micro-fiction from my Talehunt days.
The challenge is to tell a story in about the same amount of letters it has taken to write this summary.
Stories shoot across all genres: from horror to hard- boiled crime; comedy to adventure. Some display an introspection on life and the world, often through a skewed lens, but none are boring... they're not long enough to be!

Nothing to See Here
These are short stories, flash and microfictions, most less than 500 words, the longest about 1500 words. Short, funny, and sometimes fun. Sometimes pointed and sometimes pointless. These stories have been described as eclectic, quirky, and sometimes sad. Take a handful to go.Complete
Tiny Tales | ✔️
This book is a collection of numerous short stories I have created, both mini and midi ones, written in the period of the past twenty years. Some of them are award-winning entries in various micronarrative competitions. Others were adapted with the usage of audio and video stimuli thus creating something akin to hyperliterature. The book cover was done by a Wattpad user and a friend, @AWFrasier. Thank you for designing my cover (again! :)) and at such a lightning speed! Tiny Tales is ONLY available on Wattpad. If you are reading this anywhere else, it is a plagiarized version that may contain malware. ⭐⭐⭐ 📘 Featured on "Multi-Genre Anthologies" reading list on @WattpadAnthologies (June 16, 2020) 📘 Featured on "Anthologies and collections" reading list on @MicroBytes (July 14, 2019) 🥉 Microbytes Contests and Challenges - Winter Nanofiction Contest 2019 Highest rankings: #14 microfiction (June 29th, 2020)Complete
Very Short Stories & Drabbles Part 2
A collection of very short stories, microfictions, and drabbles from all themes and genres. Posted weekly!![The Killers Stories[Demo]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/387601535-256-k912450.jpg)
The Killers Stories[Demo]
This anthology plunges readers into a series of gripping and sinister tales, each unraveling a unique story of murder and descent into darkness. From the unraveling of friendships marred by twisted secrets in "Murderer Secrets" to the corrosive power of betrayal in "Dark Path Road," every narrative explores the thin line between humanity and monstrosity. These short stories vary in intensity, some subtly eerie and others shockingly brutal, drawing the reader into worlds where morality is lost, and the killers' psyches take center stage. But these are only the beginning. The collection features many more chilling tales, each distinct yet equally haunting. With plots ranging from calculated revenge to the harrowing consequences of guilt, every story promises to leave readers unsettled and craving the next dark revelation. This is not just a book-it's a labyrinth of fear, secrets, and the darkest corners of human nature.Complete
Suburban Nights ✔️
What secrets lie in the realm of the human mind? Maybe our terrible acts are due to supernatural interferences or maybe it's a sickness inside us. There's one thing for sure, though- The worst things happen in the most unexpected places... ---------------- Suburban Nights is a collection of short horror stories based on my personal experiences, thoughts, and dreams. Growing up in sleepy suburban towns have perks, but there's always something terrible bubbling beneath the surface. Story Description: 1. The Husband - Your husband has been acting a little strange lately at night. 2. The Neighbor - Your quiet home life suddenly gets really uncomfortable when you realize your elderly neighbor has been watching you through his window. 3. Public Restroom - You look back at your childhood to figure out where your fear of public restrooms came from. 4. The Screaming Woman (Pt. 1 & 2) - You wake up abruptly to sounds of a woman screaming only to be faced with your worst nightmare. 5. The People Upstairs - Your upstairs neighbors are loud and obnoxious without any regard to you. You become fed up with them until you realize what they've been dealing with. Some of these stories are not for the faint of heart and may contain blood, gore, abuse, and strong language. You've been warned.Complete

30 Days, 30 Stories: A Writing Challenge
This is a 30 day writing challenge, a collection of short stories. I've always been a world class procrastinator. The goal of this challenge is to get me writing regularly and, hopefully, break me of the perfectionist thinking that often paralyses me. The Rules: 1. Write and publish 1 short story (flash fic, vignette) per day for 30 days. 2. Stories must be at least 100 words. 3. They can be of any genre or subject matter. Like a lot of writers I have notebooks lying around full of random story ideas. Most of my older ideas are for novels and screenplays. Been going thru my old ideas and picking out the ones I think lend themselves to the short story format. I'm also working on coming up with NEW ideas that I can use here. Never been good at using prompts, but this is a good opportunity to experiment with those. All the stories here are original works written specifically for this challenge. They were written on the day they were published unless otherwise stated. Any similarities to other writers' work is purely coincidental. Thanks & enjoy! ~Laura, 20 Feb, 2018Complete
