I am so out of practice with drabbles. I keep picking ideas that are much too plotty for a hundred words.

I just got back into writing drabbly things! (I say drabbly things because my "drabbles" tend to get maybe a hundred or so words over standard drabble limit.) You could turn them into a one-shot if they get big enough, I guess.

I hate writing drabbles for that very reason, just because its so hard to get to the point, and still anchor it some idea that makes sense.

And about the time thing. I know a friend that can write 1,000 words in 20 minutes. Jealous y/y?

I always feel a need to provide BACKSTORY. Which negates the purpose of the drabble. Le sob.

ahaha i am a loser and refuse to stick to the confines of 100 words because i LOVE backstory.
