Thread Name: BS: Mudcat challenge: 100 word story exactly
Subject: Mudcat challenge: 100 word story exactly

Okay, the next Mudcat Challenge is here.
Your mission, should you choose to accept, is to write a complete short story which is exactly 100 words long - no more and no less.
It has to be a proper story with everything you want to express in those 100 words.
When I was working in the library we had a book of these from a British Sunday Telegraph competition. I saw one of the stories as a short film on tv a few years later. Very clever. And very economical use of words to convey the complexity of the story.
(Note: the above paragraphs are exactly 100 words.)
Your mission starts.....NOW!
