I find briefness powerful, yet elusive. In the last few weeks, I have taken to trying to cultivate it in my own work by writing six word stories.
It’s an exercise I am enjoying.
Do you write six word stories? Or some other kind if micro fiction?
What form of short prose do you find most impactful? I would love to know the answers to these questions, and what you think of the three I share with you today.
