Twitter novels

I have composed many art objects and conducted many ethnomethodological experiments on Twitter. I've made endless Twitter link loops. "Bird Mind" is a recent Twittered poem, comprised of several message units.

Extremely Short Prose Units are micro content of literary intent. Within ESPU are found novels of ultra brevity.

Here are a handful of Twitter novels I've written, each being in the single message unit limit of 140 characters.

(1) The Andromedans

"Humans love war. Do not land on planet Earth. They just fight all the time. Their art sucks. Back to Andromeda!" the Andromedans said.



(2) Stagnant Adventures of Sheila, Part 1

Sheila's life outstretched before her now. Its lethargy seemed to fall like a huge shadow over the porch swing. Her tea had evaporated.



(3) Stagnant Adventures of Sheila, Part 2

As the insect flew closer, Sheila could see Sam's face seeping through the sofa. Soapy dishwater overflowed the sink as she glared at it.



(4) Stagnant Adventures of Sheila, Part 3

The creaking door meant he was back. A walking stick laughed as she crammed more fig stuffing into the turducken which was dinner for them.



(5) Misty Seesaws

Misty seesaws swayed indelicately in the autumn breeze. A butterfly fluttered hastily beside it, as the children moved on to other play.
