7S7D - Day 1

Today I started a little writing experiment I call 7S7D, where I write a short story every day for seven days. I've been outlining and thinking about these stories for a while, so I feel pretty well prepared. A couple of them are going to be under ten pages, but at least two are going to be more challenging, probably in the 5-10k words range (20-40 pages).

I plan to write a blog for each day/story, so you can observe my incredible success (or rapid descent into madness). So, without further ado:

Day 1:
Story - Dr. Clipboard's Miracle Wonder Drug
Length - 6 pages / 1200 words

I started with one of the shorter stories. As you might guess from the title, this is one of the strangest things I've ever written. Both the content and the delivery were pretty unusual for me. This was also the most fun I've had writing in quite a while, and a great experience to kick this experiment off.
