Think comic books. Think novels and short stories, haikus and beat poetry. And think serialised fiction ala Charles Dickens, who wrote many of his books by chapter, published each week in the paper. And it's none and all of these. Snapshot Fiction is built for steemit. A novel in short sharp snapshots, with each snapshot (post) the equivalent of a chapter in a novel: enough to push the plot forward and develop the characters - but only a fraction of the size. The experiment began with 'Guzzi' , a science fiction snapshot adventure. And it worked - at least for me. I have maintained the same format for all my Guzzi Snapshot Fiction stories. The format works for me. It consists of two scenes, the second a consequence of the first, or sometimes a different viewpoint of the same scenario. You may even say that there are two snaps to each snapshot. Dividing each snapshot up this way helps to maintain the rhythm and remind me as an author not to get lost in detail. Because the story must always move forward. There are now 17 in the series, and the adventure isn't over yet: * Guzzi (G1): https://steemit.com/story/@drwom/guzzi-a-sf-story-part-1-of-many * The Garship (G2): https://steemit.com/story/@drwom/the-garship-part-2-of-guzzi-a-sf-story-of-many-parts * The Entombed (G3): https://steemit.com/story/@drwom/the-entombed-part-3-of-guzzi-a-sf-story-of-many-parts * The craziest story (G4): https://steemit.com/story/@drwom/the-craziest-story-a-guzzi-sf-adventure-g4 * Maple (G5): https://steemit.com/story/@drwom/maple-a-guzzi-sf-adventure-g5 * Jazz (G6): https://steemit.com/story/@drwom/jazz-a-guzzi-sf-adventure-g6 * The Heraphore (G7): https://steemit.com/writing/@drwom/the-heraphore-a-guzzi-sf-adventure-g7 * Of diamonds and sapphires (G8): https://steemit.com/writing/@drwom/of-diamonds-and-sapphires-a-guzzi-sf-adventure-g8 * Maroiders (G9): https://steemit.com/story/@drwom/maroiders-a-guzzi-sf-adventure-g9 * Jailbreak!
