What about yours, still in Italy, installing tiles? No, he got lost from the bus when they came down to go to the cludgie and the bus left without him. He got lost but he was fortunate and he was found by some guys with bone in their sron and clothed boaby, golly, you never heard something like that before. And they wanted to ithe him as he said so much meat balls would make him a balloon. But, luckily, he got the five-year brandy flask out in time, they were drooling over him. And that was it. Now he's the big cinnidh, I still send him brandy. I was afraid he won't find his socaids.

Real Fiction is a collective project started in 2013 by Florin Piersic Jr. The concept of Real Fiction continued to exist as a Facebook group, after a volume of stories was published at Humanitas Publishing House. (In November 2021, the group has 7.500 members.) The authors write ultra-short stories, with the texts limited to 500 characters (in Romanian, so the length of the English translation might be a little different) - a flash-fiction exercise on a topic that changes every few days. The group's coordinators are Florin Piersic Jr., Gabriel Molnar, Răzvan Penescu, and Luchian Abel. (Drawing by Adrian T. Roman)
