Edit, edit, edit…

If I can write a story using less than 280 characters, you can too. It’s great way to practice cutting extra words from your work.

Go to Twitter and type in #vss365 and give it a shot. Here’s an example of my most recent attempt:

Tom knelt, looking over the ledge at the shallow pool of water some 20 feet below. Without warning, his backpack shifted and he toppled forward and over.

“Holy shit! You okay?” his friend cried.

“Nothin’ injured but my fuckin’ #pride!”

It’s both challenging and rewarding and don’t forget to join me on Twitter.
