  3. It is a struggle isnt't it to respond under a limited word count. I try to do that also but my limit is 150 words. I have one today for the letter E and I do one everyday on my Riff blog. Thank you for this post today.

This blog was inspired by First 50 words where you freewrite from a single word prompt. I use random words or images to create flash fiction in formats ranging from twitter postcards to short short stories.
