More words

I'm really rather enjoying this. Being forced to write is quite possibly something I've needed for a long time. Ok, so I'm not writing stuff that I ever intend to attempt to get paid for, but I *am* writing, and. though I say it myself, most of what's going up on hundredwords isn't half bad, for me. The 100 word thing provides an incentive to get started, without being so onerous that it's off-putting. So far I've written close to 1000 words I wouldn't ordinarily have written, and had a lot of fun doing it. Besides the fun, I've also got one drabble, one ultra-short story and the beginning of something that may well actually develop beyond the normal boundaries of the short story, if I can keep it together long enough. I'm beginning to think 1500-2000 words isn't going to be remotely enough to tell the story I have in mind, and for once, that idea isn't at all scary.
