LoL :D
A very good take on the prompt. Very creative and non ordinary.
Also, it gives you the creeps since putting oneself under 24/7 surveillance is not something anyone would want to do or being demanded to do.
Your character is a mad man:)
How did you come up with the story? Did the prompt trigger it spontaneously, or was it that you had to think about it for a certain amount of time? I would bet on the former, but maybe I am wrong.
Bummer, that your fiction didn't make it into the first ranks.
Hello, @erh.germany
Thank you for your kind words. Gustav is crazy, I hadn't considered it! But maybe you are right.
As for the conception of the micro-story, I think of both. First I considered several ideas why some of us use diaries: the crux is not to forget significant past events. Then I said to myself, how would a conscious man suffering from amnesia use it, and I let myself get carried away until I finished.
I enjoyed the journey and the result, and I welcome comments like yours.
Thanks for stopping by.
Thank you, that was very interesting to read:
What other thoughts why people use diaries did you consider, but then judged as not usable for the story, if I may ask?
I am fascinated by the thinking chains of others, since they differ from mine.
HaHa! That's a great thing when it happens. I am happy that you had a good time authoring that journey.
Oh really? He appeared as a lunatic in my minds eye. I thought it was intentional. LoL :D
Please, hop over to my story as well. I have no commenters so far.
