Musing Monday #42



Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about a story format.

How do you feel about books written in a differing format – whether this be journals or letters (epistolary), verse novels, or any other form? Is this something you enjoy? Or do you prefer straight forward chapter prose.


I actually like books in journal or letter format. I feel like I am closer to the person that is the one writing the letters or journal.

I am actually working on a short story now in letter format. I am also working on setting up a website that is going to be essentially a role-playing group but instead of your usual Play by Email online these days it will be done by letters. I am calling it Letters of Fiction and I look forward to fully making the project work

I, too, think that the letter format makes things seem more real. Letters of Fiction sounds like a great idea, can't wait to see!

As long as the story is good, I don't really care what the format is. My response is here
