13:02 / 16.02.07

He said yes. I am Two.

00:43 / 26.04.07

I tried to keep it up for as long as I could. A six-word story a day is tougher than you might think.

My favorite part of the experiment was when I realized I could tell different stories with the same words:

That isn’t MY bloody claw hammer.

THAT isn’t my bloody claw hammer.

That ISN’T my bloody claw hammer?

Someone once asked me about chimera, while driving from Colorado to New Mexico. My response, is one word short of fitting this beautifully.

We used to be twins.

He almost wrecked the car. (Also, distressingly, one word short. This is hard. Stupid talented writers making it all seem so...)

Also, as I don't think it has been mentioned

Ursula K Le Guin

"Easy. Just touch the match to.."

Has all the essence of moment of Elizabeth Bishop's "Careful with that match!" in "The Filling Station", which is pretty much a treasure trove of six word stories.

Not mine, but a random misprint (I believe) on a newspaper clipping I just saw in the dumpster while sorting my trash and recyclables:

The earthworm has now lungs, child.

(I'm pretty sure that's meant to be 'no' but it's much better 'now'.)

08:22 / 27.04.07
