The Truth about Drabbles

[louiselux]

I want to know what you all think about drabbles. For me, the best drabbles have an impact that is inversely proportional to their size-- they hit the reader round the face with the all the force of a large well-swung haddock. That's what I aspire to, anyway, one day. I also tend to think that to do that they require a lot of time and effort.

I can't tell just by reading if a drabble is bit more than 100 words, so really it doesn't matter to me as reader, but as a writer, like you say, OCD takes over and I hold myself to the 100 word limit compulsively.
