I have to write a short story by Thursday afternoon. I can't say this is a great shock considering the class title contains the words "short", "story", and "writing" in roughly that order.

I will do what all great men have done in times of great crisis and tests of mettle.

I will collapse into a quivering, sobbing heap and beseech help from a higher power.

This is where you come in.

A one-sentence plot is alls I need. Nothing too elaborate is necessary. My professor has been emphasizing the importance of character over plot. A lot.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, I'm typing this while on the floor in a quivering, sobbing heap.

It's all a bit tragic, really.
