Time To Drabble

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

Just One Hundred Words.  That's a drabble, and it goes by really fast.  Unless you have trouble conveying your story in those few words.
But just imagine the satisfaction of telling a story or a scene in only one hundred words.
Consider the skill you develop in the process, the ability to cut down on unnecessary words and phrases.
Have you written a drabble before?  Try it.
Do you have something to say that doesn't require a longer story format?
Try a drabble.
Do you wonder why I'm going on and on about it?
I just wrote a drabble.
Done.

I was first introduced to the idea of drabbles when I was just starting to write fanfic (all LOTR at the time). I did quite a lot of drabbles and eventually wrote an entire story in drabble chapters. I enjoyed the challenge of finding exactly the right 100 words to say what I wanted.

I hope you'll join us in a drabble. We've had some drabble stories here that posted weekly chapters in A Little Drabble Do Ya.
