I found this contest that challenges you to write a story in fifty-five words exactly, and I have been having a ball trying to do it. I think I might need to write everything I do with this in mind. Amazing what you slash when you are trying to fit the requirements. Words are tossed quick if they aren't absolutely necessary to the story! Slash!
I decided to further challenge myself and see if I can work the theme of the contest (fifty-five words) into my entries, hence the Sammy Hagar song, "I can't drive, Fifty-five." Anyone who wants to try the contest, it's here:
