Four authors: B.R. Stateham(Death of a Young Lieutenant , Call Me Smitty ,Laurie Bowler (Across the City, The Depths of Darkness), CQ Scafidi ( Time Couriers, The Commissary), and Thomas White ( Justice Rules) used three things: a person (a hunter), place (a nursery) and a thing ( Facebook) to make an improvised digital short story. Each author writes in a different genre, with their own style and flare. This experiment is one that is going to be an ongoing series of exercises done by Trestle Press, a progressive full service publisher. Given these three words the authors were able to ,within a span of hours write their pieces and then have them edited, posted onto The Novel Spot & Gelati’s Scoop blogsite, Facebook, and Twitter, then read live on Gelati’s Scoop The G-ZONE blogtalk radio show to create an audio file of it, and finally published.
