Can you really write a Spec-Fic story in 500 words or less? Yes. Yes, you can. Join me in the adaptable world of Drabble, Micro Fiction, and Vignette. Use artwork to prompt exploration into Spec-Fic lines of thinking: “What if…”, “If only…”, and “If this goes on…” It’s challenging but glorious here!
