Oh wow. I just discovered my word count desktop widget had gotten confused with its preferences. Somehow it's been counting " and . as extra words.

So most of my 100-word drabbles are actually in the 75 range. No wonder they were so hard to write!

I'd hate to have to go back and rewrite them now though. Gah.

[[Edit: Ack. I tried to poke some of them. They refuse to be poked. ]]
