So many years of writing under 140 characters, its actually difficult to write more.

@TheWidget just start with one more character a day. Eventually, you'll use ALL the characters ...

@joerobb I will credit you in my first novel...

@TheWidget i'm sure you'll manage :)
Just start every toot with:
Once upon a time, a small rectangular device sat upon a table in a room.

As I approached I felt there was something I needed to say. Lifting the device I slide my finger across the screen and tapped at a coloured square.

The software silently did its thing and for a moment I paused. What was it I really wanted to say? Did I want to reach out, to enlighten, to educate, to share?

Or was I just looking to dilute the loneliness?

@Documentally Just so many words!
My eyes!
My eyes!

Will get used to it. Nice.

@Documentally You're just too cool.
Oh and I agree. I wonder if I'll actually start writing a bit more?
Even writing tweets became a censored labour. Interested to approach this as something quite new.

@TheWidget it's nice that they are there. Just in case :-)

@TheWidget Its like stockholm syndrome, at 140characters... I know I CAN post more, but I just feel like I can't
