Many folk with peg legs and parrots have asked how do you write a 100 word story
I have waited as long as I can to address this, BUT often one writes a story to say something. YYYYYYYYYYYYUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCkkkk. How polemic! A burning desire to share some universal truth claws its way out of your brain onto the paper. We will forgive you this time, but don’t let it happen again. If you must reflect on the human condition do it with a small voice, a teen tiny voice blissfully recounting a fool errant. Say it honestly and simply. Let it lie on the ears of your reader not as a demand, but as an invitation to explore.
