Are you familiar with the six word story? If it is new to you, it’s exactly what it sounds like. A beginning, middle, and end of a story in exactly six words, not counting a title if you choose to use one. They are tricky and I often find myself struggling with them. Which words capture a story and help the reader imagine a lifetime, a struggle, an adventure?
I would love to read your six word story/ies. You can post one or a bunch in the comments, or post on your own blog and link back to this post. Then post a link to your six word story in the comments.
To start things off, here’s miy six word story for Monday, April 19th:
The dream, the work, the win.
Hey Ratner.. you story sounds like I came, I saw, I conquered. Lovely..
I love six word stories for their brevity and clarity and wits. Am glad you created such a platform for sharing.

I don’t write six word stories, but I admire those who can tell a beautiful story in such a limited number of words! Love yours!

I have. I created my own poetry forms and literary genre, though.

I would recommend checking out my collections of haiku. My poetry forms and literary genre all borrow from the haiku. So, here you go. 😉
