In today's fast-paced world many people don't find the time for creative writing, poetry, or reading novels and other traditional works of fiction. Adapting to this shortening attention span is the idea of a"Ficlet", a collaborative short story that allows people to connect creatively with others around the world.

At the site you can write your very own ficlet, then release the narrative thread into the virtual community to see how your story ends. Those who don't want to participate can still enjoy the creative domino effect of this unique art form by reading some of the "Most Popular" and "Most Active" ficlets.
