What did you think of Hustle? Share your thoughts below, but first, the interview!! Chocolate or Vanilla? I have to cheat... both! What's your favorite room in your home? Do you plot or write there?

Willie Pete is really neat, Just drop it on the tangos. It won't take long till they're all gone, Leaving nothing but ashes and bone. Remember kids: it's not a war crime the first time. -
Phosphorus is an essential element found in many foods, including the following: Dairy: yogurt, milk, and cheese, ice cream, pudding, custard, Whole grains: wheat, oats, and rice, Nuts and seeds: cashews, almonds, pistachios, peanut butter, Meat: pork, Eggs: in the yolk, Legumes: lentils, kidney beans, peas, baked beans, black beans, chickpeas, garbanzo beans, lima beans, northern beans, soybeans, pork and beans, -

And then there are people like me, trying to write something that should probably have been a novella and compressing it until it's as short as humanly possible. -
The great thing about prompts is that that there's no limits on what you can do with them, unless it's specified in the prompt itself. My first multi-chapter novella was based off a prompt response. Good writing is good writing, whether it's a 1k flash piece or 30k novella. Although if Steve is approaching 20k, maybe I should have specified an upper limit for the PT Event Which reminds me, I need to check my PMs -

Certainly I agree with that. I have read a lot of flash fiction (normally 1,000 words or less) that are excellent. Some, however, can't be chopped or edited without losing much of the story. -

Semiconductors depend on a doping agent in silicon to act reliably in circuits. The doping agent and silicon create a lattice structure with an extra electron (n-type), or a hole for an electron (p-type). The diode, the first semiconductor device, will only allow current to flow in one direction. Discovered by Russell Ohl at Bell Labs in 1939, the diode was just the first semiconductor device. It was soon followed by transistors and their numerous variations. -
Stories don't need to be long to be good. Hemingway's Hills Like White Elephants is only 1,500 words and Shirley Jackson's The Lottery is 3,000 words. -

Well, @wildone -- are there limits on how long a prompt story can be? I would rather a good 20,000 word prompt story than one which is so chopped and/or choppy it is a challenge to read.
