Storytime Twitter

Greg Fishbone Tells 140 Character 'Tweet Mystery of Death' Stories

On June 15th, a six-week storytelling experiment was launched on Twitter called Tweet Mystery of Death.

Tweet Mystery of Death tells suspenseful stories entirely through live, semi-improvisational tweets.

Boston-based children’s book author, lawyer, and web designer Greg R. Fishbone created the idea to bring story-telling to Twitter.
