So many questions.
A hundred words written not in my first, but in my second language, left me struggling not only with the number, but also with grammar, style and content. Drabbles based in fandom are easy, but elliptical description is out of the question if you aren't writing in a known universe.
And then there are the intricacies about how words are to be counted:
"Are not" are two words, but is "aren't" truly just one?
The word count in Word produces different counts than the word count in Openoffice if used on the same text.
So many questions.
So few words.
