Thank you so much for including me! I really hope Microdosing will inspire others to write a little bit!. Non-fiction writers and also non-writers included.
Thanks, Sean. It is almost easier at times, paradoxically, to work with the constraint of 50 words, or 100. It really sharpens the editing pen! Looking forward to seeing how you get on. I've not tried it with non-fiction since my #55Words series for my 55th birthday.
At 10:03, the train steamed into the station. At 10:07, the train steamed away. No passengers embarked or debarked. No footsteps raced to catch the train. No families stood to welcome a long lost child. No conductor cried, "All Aboard!"
The bomb destroyed life, but the machines remained.

I feel certain it will encourage folk. And it is such a lovely way to build a 'micro' community inside the community of Substack.
I love these Barry. I will definitely attempt one myself. bravo.

Arrivals and Departures (Fifties by the Fire)

Terrifying vision of a future. Brilliant writing, Stephanie
Thanks!!
Thank you so much for the mention, Barrie. You’re an important part of what makes our “fifties by the fire” so special!
That's a very kind thing to say, Justin. Appreciated
This is a delightful treo of fifty-word stories.
Tuning up my writing brain ... thanks for the kind encouragement, Bill
