2. Why should people know about yourself and your story?

I think people should know my story because it is a refreshing take on the now cliché vampire drama in that it doesn’t take itself to seriously and it isn’t just for teens. (I mean no insult, my Tumblr friends.) Also, if/when people take interest in me as a writer, then I will feel motivated to possibly extend the story of…

life and was able to shape shift…take on the form of animals at will,

Story read by actress Maya Woloszyn

Get to know writer Mark Farley:

1) What is your very short story about?

It’s about a husband and wife experimenting in the bedroom. Well, it is until you read the second line.

2) What motivated you to write this story and submit it to the festival?

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.

3) What movie have you seen the most in your life?

I can watch ‘Shakespeare in Love’ over and over again. I’m a soppy sod, so I love the story, but the quality of the…

Watch the 140 Character Short Story: PRANK CALL:

Story read by actress Maya Woloszyn

Get to know writer Lucas Ruderman:

1) What is your very short story about?

My very short story is about a middle-aged man who has absolutely had it with these prank calls. He gets the old “Is your refrigerator running?” and the little kids laughing trying to remain serious. Fed up with the constant annoyance, he immediately answers his next call with an angry greeting. This is followed by several curses and crude phrases. He is satisfied with his outburst until he hears the frightened and scarred sounding tone of his mother’s voice. This of course is followed by a lecture about how he was raised much better than he had portrayed.

2) What motivated you to write this story and submit it to the festival?

My father used to get prank phone calls all the…

2) What motivated you to write this story and submit it to the festival?

I have been toying with this idea for a while, and found that keeping anything to 140 characters was quite difficult. I also just wanted to see how it would be received.

That would be hard to say. One of my favorites is “Forrest Gump” , “Gone With the Wind”; and I thought “Boyhood” was brilliant.

It’s about someone fishing and catching something impossibly big, and plays into the embellishment of fish stories.

The motivation came from the challenge of trying to write a story that can connect with the audience in just 140 characters.

3) What movie have you seen the most in your life?

Probably Star Wars.

I have dozens of short stories, and a few movie and TV scripts.
