Some of you have done a bit of writing.   How is this for concise?

In a less serious vein:

very very short book summaries, also some movie ones.

Hmmm . . . a six word story with a BadMovies.org theme . . .

OK, here goes.

I think this is a hilarious idea and I'd love to see some more. Would it help get the creative juices flowing if we asked people to contribute movies they'd like to see summaries of in 6 words?

For example: "Mary Poppins"

Go for it.

Way more than 6 words, but Richard Brautigan really did submit and get published this short story in the early '60's, waaayyy before computerized brevity:

"It's very difficult to live next door to someone who's learning to play the cello", she said as she handed the police the revolver.

I forget the title, but I've never forgotten the story.  Brautigan is still a favorite author of mine.

The original six word story is probably the best...forget who wrote it (Hemingway maybe?)

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
