BEFORE

The stranger was just saying, “I’ll give you $60 for him.” Joe thought for a while and replied, “Make it $80 and I’ll throw in the dog food, dish, and dog toys.” “No,” the stranger replied sharply. “I’m only going to give you $65 for everything. Take it or leave it!” “Alright, don’t get yourself so worked up,” said Joe. “You can have everything for $65.” “Good,” said the stranger. The two shook hands and the stranger gave Joe some money. Then Joe gave the stranger all my things. After that, Joe put me in the stranger’s car and said, “Be a good dog, Jack, and don’t run away!” Once Joe was done talking to me, he closed the car door and went inside. Then the stranger drove off with me in his car.

And thus we have the completed task of writing a scene describing a party without a single e. That’s right. No e. I do hope I’ve done it justice. And I do think I will probably attempt this again, because it’s so incredibly crazy, and impossible, and wonderful to write.

May it be even half as enjoyable to read…

A door unlocks and I stroll in. Through a stylish mansion I walk until I’m out on a humongous patio of mahogany and rusty brown brick. Strands of lights cast a dim glow as folks go about casually chatting. No sorrow surrounds; only sounds of joy spring forth. This air is…
