It was a hard process trying to make a story that was exactly 80 words. Making the story was quite hard, because I had to come up with a short story that was interesting and exciting, but I had to cut to the point and make every word count. And then I typed it up on a computer, and I had about 64 words, so I was really pleased with myself, and a bit annoyed. I got up to 80 words because I added in vivid description and explained more about the characters. Fin 80 Word Stories (Or not?!)

When you think of writing a story you might think it’s easy or hard, it’s your choice for me it was hard! When you write a story you have to use your imagination, you have to be creative with everything you write. First you have to choose the characters then the setting and the climax and what is going to happen. What I thought was hardest was to create vivid description, for me the quality mattered most. It has to be interesting. The fraises have to flow in your pages. But what I thought was a challenge, not when I generally write but my biggest was to make it 80 words. The writing has to be short and interesting in the same time! So I thought for a long time about these stories. I wrote 3: the man in the mist, treasure hunt and the search for paradise. My best choice was treasure hunt. It was the second story I created. Karin
