Thanks, Kenny. Although 'short' seems to be something of a dubious name for it. I'm up around 12000 words already, which must be near the boundary of a novella.
Still it is a first draft. If I remove two of every three words, maybe it'll do. But I am worried about VydorScope's competition. I can't ever see me writing anything under 1000 words, unless I copy the ten commandments!
Maybe I should join one of those committees in the European Union, you know, the ones that need 40000 words to describe an EU approved strawberry.
Anyway, what have you got against movie scripts, blogs and detailed instructions for encrypting you email. Well, perhaps I can understand your aversion to blogs, but I only use it to get the writing muscle going for the day, rather like John Steinbeck's 'Diary of a Novel'.
