Writing Challenge: Write a six-word story

[Louanne Learning]

Future dark; turn on the light.

 

[GrahamLewis]

Lights out and the truth emerges.

 

[Louanne Learning]

Felt my way through the dark.

 

[Selluwud]

Blind hatter succeeds, felt with hands.

 

[GrahamLewis]

Calling me someone she once knew.

 

[Selluwud]

Talking while sleeping can raise questions.

 

[GrahamLewis]

Ask no questions, get no lies.

 

[Rath Darkblade]

You want scissors? Cut it out!

 

[Homer Potvin]

Has this thread run its course? It seems like we're just writing six word slogans or general nonsense that isn't story related at all. I really don't mind but we have plenty of other threads for that. I'm not seeing anything on here that doesn't fit into Random Thoughts, other than the six word qualification.

If people are having fun with it, does it hurt anything?

No, but there are many places to have fun. This is supposed to be a "Writing Challenge" as stated in the thread title. I'm not seeing any of that. Try it with a beginning, middle, and end. Here, I'll go first:

Random nonsense. Mods annoyed. Thread locked.

Like I said, I don't really care. But I'd like to see a bit more effort.

 

[Rath Darkblade]

I think this thread being locked would be a pity. Here's a six-word story:

Abstract Philosophy does nothing - but eureka!

The way this whole thing went over your head made me laugh so hard that the thread lives.

Rath for the win, everybody.

(But please keep it on track)

 

[Louanne Learning]

I'm afraid, but proceed—mountain climbed.

 

[Kerrin]

Climbed up. Couldn't get back down.

Just when I thought it was safe to wield my quill. :-\ Writing a story in six words is way more difficult than writing a haiku. *thinks*

Was soldier. Lost leg. Hi, honey!

(What? That can be a story, too)

 

[Selluwud]

Rules made, not followed, consequences pending.

 

[Dee-123]

Competent lawyer retained. Off scot free.

 

[GrahamLewis]

Homer is irked. Hide the children.

 

[Rath Darkblade]

Rules made, not followed, consequences pending.

Rules made, not followed ... incredibly dangerous.

Or to put it another way:

Rules made, not followed? Oy vey!
