Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

One day, I would like to live in Provence. Every time that I imagine the life that I would have over there, my heart beats a bit faster! I would live in the countryside, where I'd have my own vegetable garden. I would make delicious jam that I'd sell at the village market. I would finally be able to finish writing the novel that I started years ago, and maybe even learn to paint. It would be heaven on Earth!

I'll be right with you...
