What is the Lightning Round Write-Up?

Lightning Round is a 99-word story daily writing challenge that is based off of Merriam Webster's Word of the Day. The goal is to stimulate the writing bug, expand our vocabulary, and support other writers within the writing community.

• Originally begun on Whaleshares and cross-posted for the Steemit community.

^{Keep a steady pace, #WritingCommunity. Have fun and enjoy the process. Don't forget to add the link to your #ninetyninewords story in comments.}
