A Story in Six Words
Jan. 19th, 2009 09:17 amI’ve always liked writing, and I have written a novel or two in my time (mind you, they weren’t very good!) as well as some poetry. I do have a current novel idea in the works, but who knows how long that’ll take me to write as I’m a full-time student with a part-time job, but I still try to write a little something every day, especially since I’m participating in Embodiment – but that’s a story for another post
Anyway. I found this site Six Word Stories, where users can submit a story of six words to the site. Six words sounds like a very small amount, but as I was reading through some of the submissions, a lot can be told in six words. Some of the stories were funny, others sad, and some were just weird, but I really enjoyed reading through what users had posted on the site. It makes you realize that not every story has to be lengthy and wordy and descriptive; sometimes short and straight to the point is a better way to tell a story.
After fiddling around a bit, I came up with a six word story of my own:
“I love you.” “That’s not enough.”
What’s your six word story?
