If you're wondering why the sudden fiction explosion, I set myself a challenge. Five bits of fiction in two weeks. All have to be around 1000 words, and all are written from titles. That is to say, the people who I credit in the opening gave me a title blind, with no idea what I would do with it or how the end story would turn out. And the only thing I had to do was make a story that fit that title.

It's harder than coming up with a short story and matching it to a cool title and then writing it, but I like doing it. And I only have two stories to finish before Saturday night/Sunday morning. Maybe I should have increased the limit some.

If the fiction is getting a bit too much to read or scroll past, there's only two left. Normal service of complete randomness will resume afterward. As an added bonus, I'm working on mechanics and setting material to use Reality's Reflection as an RPG, though I'm not sure when that will be ready.

And so, back to Notepad.
