He excitedly clicked 'Enter a new story' as ideas began to flood in and out of his brain. He knew that it would be easy to write something quickly, but he could not decide which flash of inspiration to type into the text box.
He decided to turn off the television in the background, so it would not distract him from making the perfect choice. He really was eager to win this contest, as he planned to use the prize points to feature something special he had been working on.
He brought his fingers down onto the keys, and the short story began to take shape. He chose not to give a detailed introduction to the only character in the story, as this would use up valuable words that could be spent on something more exciting.
His brain continued to produce a vast array of potential plots and characters, but he refused to be swayed from his original plan. He knew that this story would be in with a chance of winning as long as he made the most of the two hundred words at his disposal.
He decided now would be a good time for a word count.
