Can you write a story in 101 words?

Here are a few examples Click here

The website https://101words.org/ takes stories of - go on guess how many words! This is great for adults or students who lack the confidence to write anything longer.

You can also send your story to worthingflash@gmail.com where the parameters are 85 to 1000 words so you will be well within them.

9000 people have visited https://worthingflash.blogspot.com so far and you can make it 9001, so come along.

101 is also the non-emergency number for the police in the UK so should be easy to remember. One caveat is that Libre Office, Open Office and Google Docs have different ways of counting words. Ludicrous but true


I use Open Office under Windows. I have just completed a document and got a word count of 50255.I then opened the same document in Libre Office under Knoppix and got a word count of 49078. Out of curiosity I opened it in Google Docs and got a word count of 48979.

For 101words.org I usually count by hand to make sure!.
