Angry Scribe!A Story by Michael StevensA story written for a 500-word-or-less competition about different emotions; gee, I wonder which emotion this is about?500 words? 500 word limit, the creator of a writing contest says. I am a little pissed about the arbitrary word limit; I mean, why not a 1,000? At least then I could really say how angry I am at...at...oh great, now I'm so mad at this contest with it's '500 word limit', I can't even remember what I'm pissed about, and was going to describe here. So, thanks a lot, creator; I hope you're happy! I'm so sick of these 'limited-word' contests. I mean, somebody sitting at their computer decides on the rules for everyone else. I mean, does that sound fair to anyone? I wake up all excited to check on my writing sites, and what do my tired eyes behold? A '500-word-limit' contest. Pa-lease! Whatever I was going to rail about, there is no way I can even begin to describe in 500 words or less. Someone give me a break. If I was going to have a contest, I wouldn't put a 500-word limit on the stories. No, that just limits creativity. Hey, I can think of a good story; how about, "I'm pissed! The end"; huh? I win, contest over. There, I guess you can vent in 500 words or less; easy.
