Six sentences

Those who know me well might be surprised that I could tell a story in six sentences.  Apparently, I can.  I found out yesterday that my six sentence submission will be included in Six Sentences, Volume 2, available on Amazon.com on March 31st.

Here’s one of Amazon’s description of Six Sentences, Volume 1:

“Six Sentences (6S) is a webzine dedicated to the art of microflash fiction, a difficult art in the world of prose. Stories are told in just six sentences only – and what a wealth of stories: tales that evoke awe and beauty and sadness and outright guffaws. This is the first print anthology of these little gems by dozens of authors, some well-known, others hoping to be so.”

Here’s a little promo for 6S, V2.

    Difficult??? Damn near impossible for me! I’m intrigued. I could learn a thing or two from this.

    Hi OldWestMom,

    It was a great exercise in editing, that’s for sure — to (hopefully) have a beginning, middle and end in six sentences was fun to figure out!

    Congrats! What a neat concept: 6 sentences. Wow, I’m not even getting STARTED in 6 sentences. :) Parsimony. Gotta love it. BTW, this comment is 6 sentences, exactly :) .
