fair town read


I'm just testing the waters and practicing my writing for a little while. I've only now just started. Feedback appreciated, thanks.

I don't know... On one hand, it was amusing.

But the joke got old quite fast.

Damn, you really do hate Fluttershy.

If I do, why I keep hanging out with her?

Originally, I only wrote like three of them but there's a 1,000-word minimum, so I had to keep going.
For future works, I'll aim to be less narrow.
This flash-fiction isn't really supposed to be a linear story.
I'll up my very restrictive 100-word cap to 1,000 for my next writing exercises, which should allow for better storytelling and less repetition.
Thanks for the feedback.

I honestly had no problem reading this: It's pretty good.

For a first attempt that was quite restricted by the 100-word count I imposed upon myself, yeah, It can only get better, I suppose.
Glad you liked it.

I dont really like the micro story format you got going on here, but some of the content is gold. And yeah, the joke gets old fast.

My favorite is the "going out, forgetting jacket, meeting family" one, followed shortly by the "would you fight someone for me?" One. I like the jacket one because it's absolutely mortifying, and paints a picture of a complete psychopath, while I like the fight one because it's super realistic. I been there. Lol.

Yeah, It's called flash-fiction and it's a story of up to 100 words. Quite limiting, I know. I decided for my first writing ever - the shorter the better. Doubt I really gave the genre much justice.
I'll probably stick to 1,000 words or more moving forward. Guess I now see why that's the minimum. :derpytongue2:
Yeah, some of them had good set-ups for longer works, I think.
Maybe I'll revisit these as prompts eventually. After I get good/better at writing, anyway.
Thanks for the feedback. Appreciated.

I thought they were fun, kinda like text comics lol. They paint a decent picture and the imagination fills the rest. Though I'm a little disappointed this is the last part, I was kinda hoping the last chapter would be a bit sweeter and the last line would be "Damn, you really do love fluttershy." lol

Also, flash stories are an interesting concept, I got ideas for some fics but don't want to start big lol, this format would be good practice :twilightsmile:
