First attempt - 55 fiction
I have been reading the 55Fiction for a long time and have always enjoyed it. But because I have a tendency of writing long paragraphs?I thought 55fiction was not my cup of tea, until I firmly decided last night to at least ones attempt before completely declining over. So here?s beginning with a little sneak-peep into the history and origin of 55fiction. Fifty-five fictions is limited, precise and exciting to see the dramatic turn over to the whole story-line. ORIGIN & HISTORY: The origin of 55 Fiction can be traced to a short story writing contest organized by New Times, an independent alternative weekly in San Luis Obispo, California, in 1987. This idea was proposed by New Times founder and publisher Steve Moss. Steve Moss, whose full name was Stephen Donnellan Moss, was born in Riverside, Calif September 18, 1948. He died of complications of epilepsy in his garden in San Luis Obispo on April 24, 2005. He was 56. The 55 Fiction copyright inured to Moss' family. The Steve Moss Memorial Scholarship in Journalism was founded by his family and friends to support journalism students at California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo. Its endowment is managed by the San Luis Obispo County Community Foundation. The 55 Fiction Competition has been continuously organized by New Times ever since it was introduced in 1987. The competition is an annual event with open participation. CRITERIA: There is a definite criterion for the 55fiction and hence I have my own too: Fifty-five words. or less (A non-negotiable rule).A setting, One or more characters, Some conflict, and A resolution. (Not limited to moral of the story)The title of the story is not part of the overall word count, but it still can?t exceed seven words. Shall try to add a picture related to the 55fiction, which shall be my rachi creation, an art that works as a complementary to a story-line. source: wikipedia TOOL to count the words: http://www.wordcounttool.com/ My FIRST ATTEMPT to 55fiction: ?I stood leaning the wall all drenched in the rain. Everyone?s eye was on me. I could notice the rolling eyes inspecting so keenly my body-hugging black dress. Swiftly, someone just came and took me in his arms, not bothering about my wet clothes. Conversely, why should one care, I was just.. ...an Umbrella!?  Do let me know your views on my very first attempt to 55fiction. Your words shall be a great help. Thank you for being persistent and going through this post!Special thanks to Lena and Priya for their kind words, support and inspiration, I get all the time!!Also not forgetting to thanks Late Steve Moss who after all invented this chronically narrative way of writing short story.
