The Drabble Project

Drabble #1

by Rob Meades (Editor), David B. Wake (Editor), Brian W. Aldiss

When Rob and Dave "invented" the new literary form, the DRABBLE, in the Birmingham University SF Society they had no idea where it would lead. Their initial thought of a small fanzine with a dozen or so stories was soon left far behind. With their hearts in their mouths and their hands in their pockets they approached Roger at BECCON Publications, and together this trio launched themselves into the unknown by committing themselves to publish a book containing 100 drabbles.With much trepidation The Drabble Project was published on April Fool's Day 1988 in a limited edition of 1000 copies.

Reviews

[Frank Vasquez · Rating 3 out of 5]

A lot of fun, with about a dozen or so true gems and several more fun little ditties sure to put a smile on a reader’s face, but ultimately just convinces you you want to be writing your own. Which should, by itself, earn this 5 out of 5 stars. Anyway, if you manage to attain a copy of this fleeting collection and dare risk cracking it open, you’re not likely to be the sort of reader that would be disappointed by what you find in here.
