Start the exercise

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

I can't take it anymore! I can't find a suit that I like and fits me well. All the ones I've tried on are uncomfortable, either too long or too short. Next week I will go to a tailor so that he makes me a made-to-measure one. I will ask him to take my measurements and between the two of us we'll choose the most appropriate fabric. I would prefer a 100% cotton fabric since it feels nice and let's not forget that this fabric is breathable. Later, he will start to make the suit and, when it's ready for the first fitting, I will return so that he makes some adjustments. It will be the most elegant and comfortable suit in the world!
