Description:

55 fiction is microfiction.

It's the telling of a story in 55 words or less.

It started out as a contest for the New Times, an alternative weekly paper in San Luis Obispo in 1987.

The standard rules of thumb for 55 fiction are as follows:

  1. Fifty-five words or less (A non-negotiable rule)
  2. A setting,
  3. One or more characters,
  4. Some conflict, and
  5. A resolution. (Not limited to moral of the story)

Many 55 fiction writers rely on drama, shock and suspense for elements of their stories.

So, the idea of this swap is to write a 55 fiction story and swap it with a partner!

No theme for your story. Just get creative and make it good!

Newbies with fully fleshed out profiles and that are currently involved in at least 3 swaps are invited to join. However, please be forewarned that flakers will NOT be tolerated.

Come on, we all like getting something special in the mail!! It's only a kind, simple act to reciprocate, and it doesn't require a lot of effort to do so. Don't flake!

Seasoned writers, and newbie writers are all welcome!

This swap is 1 story to 2 partners. It can be the same story, or a different one for each.
