It's a mini-action adventure set in Las Vegas.<BR><BR>I wrote a couple transitionary chapters at the end to transition into Chapter Two (which was originally Chapter One). <BR><BR>So props to your blog today.

Perhaps I should try writing some drabbles if only to learn brevity. <BR><BR>alan chin<BR>author of Island Song<BR>http://alanchinwriter.blogspot.comAlanChinWriterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01391204766858688761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004116580914475467.post-33765617932136650382009-05-12T13:25:00.000+10:002009-05-12T13:25:00.000+10:00I write a lot of flash fiction.

I made my grad students this term write Twitter stories (I'll be giving a talk about that in June at the Great Writing Conference in Wales).
