Drabbles

A Drabble is a story of exactly 100 words. I have read about this kind of thing, but I have enough trouble making an understandable story in 4,000 words, so I have never entered – until now.

It seems I will do anything to avoid work. The problem with 100 words is that you can do it in two or three minutes. Of course that’s also a problem because 101 words or 99 words is just as easy to write. Getting exactly 100 words takes five times as long as the original writing.

I sent them two and I am deleting the link in my bookmarks so that I will not be tempted to send more.
