100 words? But if we are incapable of that, a fairly self contained first part of 100 word or so will do? Hmmm. Might have to test it out to see how that works :D
You can give us the beginning of something...OR you can post the pared down, scaled back, budgeted for space version for the table and then underneath link to the better version that you adore because you got to include all your awesome dialogue AND action AND character development.
It's actually really interesting to try and do it - so you totally should. Writing that little example above took me ages, because I kept moving reasons, moving sentences, adding sentences, taking descriptions out, putting them in, running over the limit, backing off, and then finally in the end it turned out better than it started. RIDICULOUSLY SHORT, but okay.
And I'm totally with you on the revision, revision, revision thing making you kind of crazy. Especially when you're writing something and you have three words left (to 100) and you're like...OH GOD. HOW DO I USE THOSE IN THE BEST WAY O_0 *eye twitches* ...I CAN'T WASTE THEM.
Thoughts? Feelings? Random stuff you need to say?
