I read a piece at a flash fiction session at World Fantasy. I had 3 works to chose from: a 3 wishes tale; a story about where an Ondine's soul comes from; and a sexy piece involving a guy covered in blue fur. Hmm, which one to chose? <br /><br />I read the blue fur one. It was only 300 words long, but it stood out. People came up to me the rest of con saying how much they enjoyed it. Of course, maybe it just means sex sells. Or people really like blue fur. And it made them laugh. <br /><br />If you can pick something that triggers an emotional reaction in an audience, then what you read is that much stronger.Pippa Wysonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05882425523006590004noreply@blogger.com
