Don't be all excited - there's nothing new. I have come up with a plan, however.
One of the other WriterCon attendees wrote a couple of months ago about making up business cards with her contact info to hand out at the con. I thought that was a great idea, so I knew I was going to abscond with it.
Then I read Iterations by Robert J. Sawyer. It's a short story collection and includes a very short (250 words) story. The cool thing was that he put it on his business cards, so when he passed them out, everyone had a sample of his writing. Another brilliant idea, and I'm already good at stealing brilliant ideas, so...
However, there is one issue. I have 33 pages of 100 word drabbles. Some of them were ruled out because they were part of a series (hard to fit 4 100 word drabbles on a card), because they were weak, or for other reasons. That still left me with 18 drabbles that I consider my best. Now I have to choose.
I abdicate.
I leave the choice to you. All 18 drabbles are behind the cut, and if you have time, I'd love to hear your comments (via the comments or by email) about which one I should put on my contact card.
Hope you like them!
