6,267/1,000,000 (0.6267%)

I found this site about stories that have exactly 100 words. From the about page, "None of us will ever know the whole story.... We can only collect a bag full of shards that each seem perfect."

This week, I've been collecting shards. I can't call them perfect, but I find them intriguing. The form is as liberating as it is restrictive. Writing so little can be a struggle for the most condensed form, but knowing that the quota is the end allows me to explore an idea without worrying about all the questions.

And yes, this is 100 words. ;)
