Everyone knows of the famous six word story "For sale: Baby shoes, never worn," by Hemmingway. I am part of an online group which writes six word stories in his honour. The title of the story is above six words and is shown in bold.
"Racism ends when there's only us!"

I love how powerful just even six words can be, these stories are just beautiful.
I particularly enjoyed 'Humanity', those six words really summed just about everything up.
Hello
this was all interesting. I have never seen six word stories, so this was an interesting read for me. Its cool because you just let the unsaid words fill in, I guess is how to describe it.
Very, very cool
