Congrats on your birthday coming up and on your anniversary. I would like to see TBI keep the 50/100 words challenge rather than replace it. If you want to add a challenge now and then the way you spoke of how it would be or set up with a bigger limit on the words, using five words to incorporate, then fine, but I don't think you should mess with something as good as the thrifty word

challenges. I like them a lot. It helps me to write.

I don't think putting the new challenge, if you do have them as you say you might, that putting in an era would work. Might make it difficult to write a story. I would nix that. Thank you much for all the writers at TBI giving us weekly thrifty challenges. You're all so great. Thanks.
