I like reading sci-fi and have a head full of stars - it was only a matter of time before they came together.
As I enjoy pulp sci-fi and pulp content generally has no filler (ie in the Lensman series of books it isn't far in before they start throwing planets around because of the high stakes nature of the battles) I thought I would like to try my hand at it.
The sparse text is because I don't trust myself to fill entire chapters with the same quality of content and because these ideas grew out of a Geek set of magnetic poetry magnets as inspiration (original magnetic poetry photo posts can be found on my twitter). These magnets have since been destroyed and not yet replaced.
I also find the disjointed text is interesting as it requires the reader to fill in a lot of detail in their imaginations and also enjoy the challenge of getting across such a complex message in 140 characters or less.
I was also inspired to set up small cliffhangers on every fifth message as it is shared Monday - Friday this means there may be some interest over he weekend and I also then have to make plot lines that can accommodate that - a marvelous experiment.
If you have any tips, tricks or ideas - tweet me on #flamegirl
