Fueled by the startling outcry against the 1000 word limit of the Seasonal Writing Contest, I feel really sad that the art of concision has been lost to everything but poems.
So, as challenge to any willing to try: Produce a piece on any topic of any genre and convey a full arc in 500 words or less.
No reward, nor will any kind of winner be chosen, as this is more of an exercise in obscure methodology. I for one will provide a review on every piece posted (if any) and hopefully we can all grow as a result of this.
