I've been thinking of a text about this girl who had a midget fetish all day. Seeing as all men she slept with were an average height, her sexual relations were truly unleashed in her imagination. Her imagination was very explosive. She would reach seething orgasms. But instead of writing after I had got back home, I started reading. And what did I come across through the pages of the book? A guy who had a red color fetish. He had her wife dye her pubic hair read so he could get hard. Embarrassing. My text would've been better.

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 January 2022, the group has 7.830 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)
