Struck by Lightning
I posted an entry for the last 'Struck by Lightning" contest. I've hardly touched flash before and I found it a very useful discipline. Inevitably I ended up with too many words (limit was 500) and had to lose about 150 words.

I found it made me think hard about what was important to progressing the story and the charcterisations. It was a good learning exercise. I wondered if any one else had any thoughts on this?
