I joined Twitter recently and was fascinated to see how much twitter fiction is out there. Fitting a story into a single tweet is such a challenge! The festival appealed because tweets often get lost in a sea of text, and it’s great to see the stories brought to life in a new, exciting way.

SAND, Twitter Short Story by Jemma Pollari
My father took a photograph of me (photo here) walking on a sandblow; the idea came from the heat and expanse of sand, where any marks we make are covered over by the unfaltering wind. I was motivated to submit it to the festival after seeing the previous winners’ videos on YouTube – I love the idea that a whole narrative can be condensed to 140 characters.
