Today for an exercise, write a story in 55 words or less. It's been done. I've done it, and I think it can spark something in your mind that you never thought would come from it. It's an amazing feeling to even get this done in under 55 words. (It's about 3 sentences or less.)
Here's an example of one I've done:
"It's time to go," the boss said. I had no clue where I would be going. Suddenly, I was pushed off the cloud and down toward the ground at a tremondous speed. Others were falling with me. As I inched closer and closer to the ground, all I could hear were groans. Once I got closer to the black asphalt, I heard one say, "Oh no. It can't be snowing again!"
Have fun with this!
Just a quote for today:
"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it." ~C.S. Lewis
