In reading the November issue of Wired (14.11), there was an article entitled “Very Short Stories”. The premise was, Hemingway wrote a story in six words and believed it to be his best work. Wired asked 33 writers to write a six word sci-fi story. I thought, I wonder if OSC wrote one. Sure enough he did. His read:
The baby’s blood type? Human, mostly. – Orson Scott Card
It made me chuckle. One other one that really got me laughing was:
machine. Unexpectedly, I’d invented a Time -- Alan More
While reading this, I thought, what a fun topic for the Hatrack.
Give your best story in six words. It doesn’t have to be sci-fi. Mine is autobiographical.
Work all the time, still broke! -- Jack D. Lyons
Have fun with it.
