Exercise #598: Craft
Posted  12/5/14

Every year, when I attempt NaNoWriMo, I realize again that novels aren’t my strong suit. I flourish best in the very short story range, even as small as flash fiction.

Where are you most comfortable? Give us a short essay (even if essays aren’t your best buddies) on what style or length of writing is where you best fit and why. Stuck on what to say? Give us your tips on how to successfully write these.

Critiquers, along with the usual technical critique, you might answer these questions:
     * Was this piece helpful to you as a writer?
     * Why or why not?

Word limit: 500
Please use the subject line
