It's going okay, thanks.
I have a plot and some characters constructed. The pain in the neck, though, is condensing the story to 500 words.

I have 580 so far. Eek.

Don't rush haha, we have until the 22nd, so just think about it during the day and let the answers come to you :smile:

That's what I'm doing, but I'm surprised people posted their stories so early lol
