I was listening to National Public Radio on Valentine's Day, when they ran a feature called something like Six Word Stories. They gave several examples.
The first was done by the novelist Ernest Hemingway:
"For sale: Baby shoes. Never worn."
The other came from an anonymous man:
"She developed Non-Hodgkins lymphoma. I bailed."
I thought the six word format would be interesting to try. There have been several books written using a collection of stories sent in. Perhaps the moderators would consider using our stories as part of a fund raising effort, to support this site. (It can't be cheap!)

This is activern's brother reporting that she has been banned from this website for reportedly making comments against Dr. Ruddy on her post about a "Pink Virus". She is very upset about this and feeling more depressed than she usually is. She is unable to write or provide any support for the next couple of weeks. |
