The best things come in small parcels.

The greatest thinkers use the fewest words.

Condensing a story into 100 words is the task set before you. You have the capacity for characterisation and generation of mood, but choose your words wisely!

The 100 Word Story Contest is designed to stretch your imagination and indulge your vocabulary. How evocative can you be? How can you awaken the senses?

As ever, we have some fantastic entries for this contest; check out the #100words channel for some excellent reading.

The consequences of the recent Hard Forks seem to make rewards appear to have become a little meagre. I am assured that as the next few days roll by that the values will return, so ignore the pay-out values as best you can!

Given that Saturday is April Fool’s Day, and entries need to be submitted by 6pm on Saturday, the Theme for this week is:

“FOOL”
