What's your story about first?

Most of the people at my school are having the opposite problem. Not many ideas and a whole lot of space in which to stretch them over.

well, you have to write your story first... then work out what you can cut out.
i just realised that ive written WAY too much for my first character... ill have to either cut it down or cut another characters bit down... i hate that sorta thing.

Stupid Word Limit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[nick1048]

do u really expect markers to read ur 100,000 word works... It has to be reasonably restricted, it's a short story not an attempt at writing a novel

 

[PerfectByNature]

yes, that is true... but its sooo hard to write a really short story... soo hard...

my idea

Well since i was born in Chile but grew up here, i'm writing my short story on the coup that took place back in September 11 (yeh i know ...freaky) in 1973. Way more than 3000 people died, the president's palace was bombed and he was assasinated, all in all it some bad shit.
