I remember when Twitter was still young and everything hadn't been done to death on it and timelines made sense ... and there was a movement to write "Twitter novels." Only writing a story in 140 character bursts was LITERAL TORTURE. I tried it. It sucked. Apparently big in Japan though.
Anyway, wondering if this little 500-word microburst format wouldn't be a much better choice for such a venture. I can write freaking paragraphs in this space.
@AlisonHudson One thing to note about Japan and a 140 character limit being popular is that you can say a lot more in Japanese using less characters than English. Many video game speedrunners will play using the Japanese language version of their games so they can get through the text boxes faster. There might be 2 text boxes instead of 5 as a result.
