365 six word stories

“For sale: baby shoes, never worn.”
According to urban myth that is the reply Ernest Hemingway gave when he was challenged to write a story in just six words.
In 2010 two creatives, Van Horgen, writer, and Anne Ulku, designer, felt up to the challenged. They launched six word story everyday blog and did exactly that: they posted one six word story for every single day of the year.
Once 2010 came to an end, they opened up the project to everybody on sixwordstoryeveryday.com.
Admittedly, these are great story openers rather than stories in themselves, but very interesting, still.
