The Challenge

On December 3, 2012 I started a personal challenge to write one 100 word story a day for 100 days as a way to share my writing, to gain a better understanding of sentence structure and to become more disciplined in my writing.

When I changed careers to pursue writing I would, on occasion, write these little stories as a way to warm up and to improve my descriptive writing.  Over time I found it fun and satisfying to write a complete story with an exact word count of 100, which led me to discover there is a name for stories written using just 100 words.  They are called a drabble or as I like to call them, twenty second stories.

Please enjoy my little twenty second stories.
