Six Little Words
The November issue of Wired has an interesting article about stories written in only six words. Count ‘em, six. November is also the month of the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), better known as 1600 odd words a day in linguistic hell to complete a 50K plus word something or other.
…so what’s yours?…
This year I’m taking a break… I just can’t do the 50K thing. But I might be able to do six. So consider it a Meme…. come up with your best six word short story and we can make November a ShoStoSixWorMo instead.
Some examples;
For sale: baby shoes, never worn. – Ernest Hemingway
Longed for him. Got him. Shit. – Margaret Atwood
It’s behind you! Hurry before it – Rockne S. O’Bannon
And mine, you ask?
Birth, stuggle, death. Rinse and repeat. – Ric Knight
