Short : Lame Enough to Win by Bill Schott |
|
"Okay Honey. I have to write a story that is about a hundred words that has a plot and characters and conflict." "Is a hundred words the plot?' "What? No, the plot has to be about something dangerous." "A paper cut?" "A pap"" "What about a bee sting? What if there was a red shirt in with your briefs? "C'mon. I need an intense character with a conflict." "Remember having the runs at Aunt Abby's birthday party, and all the oldsters were using all the bathrooms all the time?" "Y'know, that idea might win. It's kooky! " "You're welcome."
