The original idea was to challenge Hemmingway to write a complete story in six words, exactly. Since then, it's been a fairly big thing in the writing circuit. So, compose a complete story in six words exactly. (Cannot be more or less, has to be six words.)

For those of you that are curious, Hemmingway's answer was

So, let's get cracking. I'll start with two:

  • Gone Gonzo, Cockney Thread? Completely unrelated.
  • User Reviews... Where's my red pen?
  • NewClassic? Vault Legend? I need glasses.

    How's that working for you, NewClassic?
    I did one of them. Something like that?
