More Six-Word Stories (And Socks)
My life has had very little writing time of late, which leads me to… more six word stories! (Inspired by Ernest Hemingway and Luke Prater.) The idea is to tell a story in just six words. I came up with a few the other day — here are a few more:
Her socks. He paired. Soul mates.
******************************************
Boy meets girl. Doesn’t end there.
*****************************************
I.O.U. forgiven. But not anything else. (Perhaps more true to form: I.O.U. forgiven. Nothing else.)
****************************************
Stone. Fits pocket, palm, guard’s temple. (THIS ONE IS NOT ADVOCATING VIOLENCE.)
****************************************
Beach bottle. Message waterlogged. Nickle deposit.
***********************************************
His newspaper. Personal circled. She paced.
************************************************
ps – if you want to check Luke’s site, note that I think it may down right now with some software issues but should be up soon.

I like that first one especially and enjoy the story that pops into my mind when I read them. Fun.

Enjoyed them all! Favorite was the ‘beach bottle’ one. Felt sorry for the one who had placed the message….hoping.

I.O.U. forgiven is for me, but they are all so truly ingenious… a delightful post. Thank you.
