shakatany: Sleeping woman plus moon and stars (Halloween kitties)
[personal profile] shakatany
As many of you know I am not a fan of drabbles so this rec is truly out of the blue. I gakked this from [livejournal.com profile] wisteria_. Apparently Wired magazine asked writers to compose stories consisting of 6 words as Heminway once did ("For sale: baby shoes, never worn.") and who was said to consider it his best work. Now other writers including our Joss Whedon have taken up the challenge. Read them here.


ETA: [livejournal.com profile] ozarque has done a post on this with her commenters contributing Very Short Stories of their own. So has [livejournal.com profile] ursulav - it's popping up all over.

I've gone from hating drabbles to really liking them. The six words thing is quite fascinating. :)
