Constrained Writing Exercise #2

On my last blog, we did a very successful writing exercise of short-short-SHORT stories.  Here's the first part.  We'll keep it EASY this time around.  But beware something more in-depth will follow later.


For now, if you've tried writing a short-short story, less than 1,000 words, try this ultra-short... write a short-short story that is exactly 100 words long.  It's a super short form, but you should be able to tell a simple narrative story.  It's great for a quick conversation with a conflict and a resolution.  Think about the scene.  Is it a story that takes place at one stop light, one elevator ride, one phone call?


Try it.  If you enjoy it and want to share your results, email your story to me at SMHIOF@aol.com, and if I love it, I'll post it here for other readers to comment on.
