100-Foot Crow About We’re an online literary magazine exclusively focused on speculative drabbles—that is, 100-word science-fiction and fantasy stories.Why drabbles? Because drabbles are the best! They are delicious little literary snacks. They are easy to read and deliver an incredible bang for your buck—an entire story you can read in less than a minute! Who wouldn’t want that? (The answer is no one. Everyone wants that.)Here at 100-Foot Crow, we believe drabbles deserve more respect, which is why we pay the SFWA pro rate for all stories we purchase.
