All right. (I hope I'm posting in the right place). Basically, I'll be without a computer for a few weeks, and as one of my favorite topics on this site is Claudette's Ultra-Short Fiction thread in Writing Activities, I'm looking for help in compiling a list of one word topics to continue this exercise (what happens in this exercise is the person posting above you suggests a topic, then you write up to a hundred word story and post a topic for the next person). Any help would be appreciated!

Hello!
Just to clarify: you just want a list of words that can help you write a hundred word story, right? Or, do you want a list of the words used by Ultra-Short Fiction in the past?

(Either way, I suppose it helps you....) Here's a compilation of some of the one-word topics used in Ultra-Short Fiction Thread.

Abuse
Bears
Beep
Butterflies
Chocolate
Conversation
Cyberspace
Fencing
Music
Necromancy
Oven(s)
Pink
Portrait
Sunrise
Rice
Russia
Silence
Tied

Thanks, I'm also looking to add to this list.
  








You walk into this room at your own risk, because it leads to the future, not a future that will be but one that might be. This is not a new world, it is simply an extension of what began in the old one. It has patterned itself after every dictator who has ever planted the ripping imprint of a boot on the pages of history since the beginning of time. It has refinements, technological advances, and a more sophisticated approach to the destruction of human freedom. But like every one of the super states that preceded it, it has one iron rule: logic is an enemy and truth is a menace.
