Facebook is a home in my home. This home has brought me many friends. I visited cities. I went to events. I ate the best fried donuts thanks to this Home. I talk daily with the friends I made here. Good morning, have a good day, have a nice evening, happy birthday, I wish them. I read stories, poems, see paintings, impressive pictures they took. I write and paint encouraged by them every day. Here my wings grew and I discovered lands unknown to me.

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 May 2023, the group has 11,260 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, Luchian Abel, and Vlad Mușat. (Drawing by Adrian T. Roman)
