Uh.... what's the deadline... me and my big mouth!
The counting!!

Tomorrow. I just started one. I have to give you a counting tip:

The first three lines of my story looked like this in my draft, which I am making in Word:

14, 10, 4, 29, 16, 12, 21, 20, 24, 8, 3, 13, 9, 15, 6, 25, 22, 26, 2, 31, 17, 30, 18, 7, 28, 1, 27, 19, 5, 11, 23
14, 10, 4,

The womyn waded as silently as possible into the pond in their back field.

The night was very dark, and the water very warm.

No one could see.

This saves me a TON of time. And it feels akin to freewriting, but sort of slow motion freewriting. I hope you give it a shot.

I think that was how I started last time, but we're talking math here. Thanks for the pointers! This time, I made it work. I even used Word Count to verify it. The 31-sentence limit may be the hardest part of all! How to finish a story with a beginning, middle, and end in that small space....

deadline is sometime Tuesday. You can do it!
