See? I couldn't have come up with one that good on my best day!

I'd have had to take the idea and at least do a short story. If I'd tried to two sentence the concept, it would have been clunky and ring hollow. But this? This slaps

I remember a book I had a few years ago. Its premise was basically horror short stories that'd fit in a tweet each (<=150 chars).

One that I remember was basically

Thanks! I'm definitely going to try to post more. It's easier with the nice weather too.
