- a challenge - 52 short stories in 52 weeks...something must be worth reading, right?


 Banner for Bradbury ChroniclesBanner for Bradbury Chronicles
If you can write one short story a week — it doesn’t matter what the quality is to start, but at least you’re practicing — at the end of the year, you have 52 short stories and I defy you to write 52 bad ones. Can’t be done. At the end of 30 weeks or 40 weeks, or at the end of the year, all of a sudden a story will come that’s just wonderful.
           - Ray Bradbury

Let's see if that quote actually pans out with this one.
