...Ahhhh, this is nice, all set up here on Ficlets, lets see what we can do! hmmmm… ah yes, here we are…

right… WRITE !
time for me to write!
time for me to write my way into the NIIIIIIGHT !

Shall I tell of the story of old Mr. Woo?
well im not really sure how it goes…

I could type up a ficlet
about my good friend piglet
well that one, everyone KNOWS !

What to do what to do
my minds in a mess
maybe im not ready to go…

This ficlet thing has come really fast
so what do I write? I dont know!!!!

That featured story is really quite good
how could I ever compare?!

Maybe one day
that will be me!
When Im typeing ficlets without care!

Well here I go
my first couple words,
the counter is starting to count

a man with a gun
now this should be fun
the tension is starting to mount…

My story comes to an end
the robbers been shot
a heroic cop sings his song!

I look down below,
my heart fills with woe,

My ficlets two hundred too long!!!!!!!!

    Love it! Especially the two hundred too long… that’s the time I say “crap” through gritted teeth and scroll up muttering, “there’s nothing I can take out, maybe I cantake this out- but no that won’t do…....” ;)

    haha! i totally agree with Jenunique! that happens on nearly everything I write! but, you know, i’ve always preferred shorter stories to wordier ones that just confuse and annoy (ex: GREAT EXPECTATIONS ! ugh! and i read the abridged version!) so maybe there’s something to this whole character limit business! speaking of wordiness, i’m getting a bit long-winded here!

    ugh i totally relate. you get in a groove and the story flows like water. Then all comes to a grinding halt when you see how far over the limit you have gone. Craaaaaappp is what you hear in your head. Your cursor obediently travels up and you scan the story for deleteable sentences.
