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

I know the perfect couple. Their names are Marc and Julien, and I really admire their relationship. They've been together for twelve years and they're still completely in love. Marc told me their secret: "We communicate all the time. When we argue, we always talk afterwards. In twelve years, we have never gone to bed angry." I really envy them! And you, do you know a couple like Marc and Julien?

Clever stuff happening!
