I hope the text is now more readable.
I also hope that I can actually meet this challenge. Fear has struck hard for me for the first time here. So, there's that, anyway.

I think this experiment works well. Everything is much more obvious and legible, and I am sure that people with crap monitors are thanking you.
Yeah, well thank YOU.
See, one of the numerous things I like about you is that when I tell you to shut up until you have suggestion, you tend to show up to play.
I love that quality.
I'm not sure what y'all are scared of. You'll give it a shot and maybe you're a sprinter who can burn through 30,000 words, and maybe you're not--which speaks not at all to the quality of your work. It's just a style of working.
If you have something you're reasonably happy with at the end of the weekend, you send it in to the 3-Day judges. If not, you don't. Plenty of people register each year and don't wind up sending anything in. It raises no eyebrows.
You worst case scenario is that you discover your style is to work more slowly (which is fine) and you wind up with something you've started and can expand upon at your own pace.
