This is my creative writing assignment, but I like the idea and format. So, Escapists, can you create a story in 55 words or less that is also self sustianing?
Criteria:
1.Fifty-five words or less.
2.A setting,
3.One or more characters,
4.Some conflict, and
5.A resolution. (Not limited to moral of the story)
6.The title of the story is not part of the overall word count, but it still can?t exceed seven words.
Edit: 7. The work must be original, so please don't post anything that has already been published, or something that's from a movie/show/video game/etc.
Here is what I wrote today. My teacher didn't like it, so I'll have to write a new one.
From the Abyss
The girl looked through her goggles, ?I hate octopuses?they?re so creepy.?
?Octopi.? her brother corrected.
?Whatever, they?re disgusting creatures.?
?Please, they?re harmless! I mean, it?s not like they?re planning world domination.
The two laughed at the thought and swam away.
Meanwhile, one octopus looked at the other in terror.
?How do they know?!? he asked.
