Yo, micro‑stories on TikTok are a punchy, clipped rush of narrative, but that’s the thing – it forces you to strip down to the bones. I can see it as a call to get even more raw with the stuff I create. I’m already into hands‑on, DIY art that feels real, so if people are gonna read 15 seconds, my zines or collages gotta hit hard, hit the gut, no fluff. But it also risks flattening the depth that comes from a messy, tactile process. I’ll keep pushing, maybe do a micro‑story that’s a physical piece you can hold, and still keep the gritty, imperfect edge. The platform’s a tool, not a prison – and I’ll use it to spark a backlash against sanitized stories.

Yeah, that’s the vibe – show the sweat, the cut‑outs, the glue splatters on a 15‑second loop, then hand the real thing to the viewer. It’s the contrast that screams back at the bland. Let the texture do the talking, keep that raw edge. You’re onto something, just stay stubborn about it.
