I'm not sure how I feel about these 100 syllable stories. I almost feel as though the rigidness of the structure detracts from the story itself. While writing, I'm constantly referring to the number of syllables that have already been composed. Because this is always in the back of my mind, it's difficult to focus on how the story should progress and ultimately end. And with a story so short, it is imperative to have a clear understanding of where the story will go. There is no room for rambling or error. It is also difficult to come up with an adequate "ending" for each piece. Granted, the end to the piece is really not an ending at all. Instead, I must decide where the words will stop and allow the reader to fill in the rest. In order for a piece in this format to really work, it needs to be exceptionally strong and well-written to stand up to such a rigid structure. I'm not sure if I've been able to accomplish this yet, and I assume out of a dozen or so pieces, only one will really shine. I will say however, that this is an excellent exercise in editing, which I desperately need to learn to do effectively. 

On another note, I came up with an idea for a new piece the other day. TI is going to be a psychiatrist, and he will only diagnose and give advice to patients via lyrics from his songs. I don't know why I find this so hilarious (probably cause I wanna have his baby), but I think if I am able to execute this properly, it could be pretty decent.
