Twitter Fiction
Over all this project was a challenge that I feel really
made my creative side open up and just think on how to pattern a short story, I
had fun writing it (even thought at some times it was frustrating). It took
some time to get into the groove of writing your own story but after I got
rolling it was a new experience that was kind of fun. I did have a hard time on
ending my story and having the typical self conflict of writing, should this character
die... or live? Another frustration I had was deciding how to pack all this detail
into small fragments of writing, eventually you get a hold of how to organize
your thoughts in a way that works but it does take lots of time to get there.
Writing this piece of work made me realize I really connect
to the books I'm reading at the time. For example I was reading a book called
"Go Ask Alice" and this book happens to be about a girl that is
exposed to some serious drug that take her into some life changing experiences.
My Twitter Fiction just happens to be about a girl struggling with her
addiction after rehab, see the connections? I don’t really have a problem with
social networks such as Twitter and such, so when it came time to publish some
material it wasn’t a big deal for me. as long as I'm proud about my writing I
have no problem sharing my thoughts and stories.
I read a lot of other class mates tweets I didn't unfortunately
spend a lot of time exploring out the deeper writers of Twitter Fiction, I was
already a Twitter user so spending all this time surfing Twitter has been fun
and I do feel like it's a creative way of writing. How big Twitter Fiction got
on the web really surprised me, but I guess this was because I hadn’t heard of
it before this assignment.
Like I mentioned earlier I am a Twitter user on a regular
bases so I didn’t really have a huge perspective change on Twitter since I
already acknowledged that Twitter is a very interesting way of writing and
people really do use it as a personal diary and writing platform.
I would agree if you were responsible enough to keep your
Twitter under control, just as our blog it can be used as a way of putting your
work out there productively, such as work or school resumes. Twitter is a huge
process that can propel us further and further into creative writing.
