Creating Fiction on Twitter

Twitter is becoming well-known for being the place online where news about major events are broken. Andrew Sayer has taken this fact to a new level and has done an amazing mock up of what his Twitter timeline would look like if there was a global Zombie attack.  It is absolutely fantastic and even this small snipet creates a wonderful sense of suspense and you are left wanting to know what happens next.

This got me thinking, is anyone out there using Twitter either directly or in a pictorial form like Andrew’s mock up to tell a story?   So I started investigation and I found Twitter Fiction, who writes a stories, or as she terms it, microfictions in 140 characters.  Meanwhile over at MInific, they are collaborating 130 character stories and reposting them through a single Twitter feed.

I am sure there are many more people out there using Twitter to write fiction, so if you know of any please let us know.
