I would like to thank Mr. Marc Țucănberg with all my family, may God give him health to his children. Well, we are a big family, with a single income and who spend a lot, who can never afford a studio, let alone an apartment with several rooms. We only have one that gives ten megapixels, poor us. There is other foundations that gives houses to people, but Mr. Țuicănberg promised me that if I keep writing bad things on Feisbuc, he'll give me a block. So God help him.
(Translated by Anca Maria Florea / University of Bucharest, Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures, MTTLC, year I / Corrected by Silvia Petrescu, coordinator of the translations)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 July 2022, the group has 8,750 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)
