RE: Automaton Oligarchy -- a 50 word short
Great job here. You packed a ton into those 50 words. Seems like it could almost be a writing prompt for a much larger story.

Thank you Neg. I feel that the trick is to avoid putting too much in that it confuses the reader, but enough to get their imagination running away into the world you plant the seeds for.
Hopefully I found that right balance here. I know your first 50 word short did that for me.
Hm, so maybe you planted just the right amount of story, and it's MY mind that is full and running away with it. Well done, in either case :)
But yes, one does have to have a deft hand to offer enough without going over the top.
