The Countdown Story

I struggled long and hard on the short story that I recently completed.  I didn't like that.  So I thought that I would try something different.  I am doing a countdown this time.  How?  Well the first document/day's work on 'Open Water' is labelled Open Water 10.  The second is Open Water 9.  I will see what happens by the time I get to Open Water 1.  It's a mind game but one that I hope will keep me focused.  And wouldn't it be neat if I have my completed first draft by Open Water 1?
