Taking Another Shot
November 21, 2011 by Admin
Once again, as I did last year, I have entered the Writer’s Digest short-short-story competition. I took a kernel of an idea I’d had for a novel aimed at young teens, wrote a drastically shortened draft of it, then ran several edit passes while trying to shoehorn it into the contest’s 1,500-word limit. Not easy, but worth the effort.
I am not holding my breath about prizes; just glad to have given my prose-producing and -polishing muscles a good workout.
