This folder houses all my efforts for the Fifty-Five word contest.
The Fifty-Five Word Story contest is a marvelous exercise in thrift. Each and every word suddenly becomes so critical. I haven't found much success in these attempts, but I love the intellectual stimulation it provides. I try and participate regularly.
