At the Confessional. Wonderful are the sweet violets that sprout in the woods and in the yard of the block of flats, the chic stereotype, is the red rose, blessed be his Name, but the most beautiful flowers are the ones that I picked up myself or the ones that I didn't receive yet, there was only nonsense in my head, the romance genre, but every time I chose the drama genre because the smart and beautiful boys is cruel. Now what more do you want, old lady? To live.

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 December 2021, the group has 7.750 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)
