So - this Six Words thing:

[tzikeh]

Wired.com has an article today:

We'll be brief: Hemingway once wrote a story in just six words ("For sale: baby shoes, never worn.") and is said to have called it his best work. So we asked sci-fi, fantasy, and horror writers from the realms of books, TV, movies, and games to take a shot themselves....

It goes on to present a bunch of entries from Alan Moore, Joss Whedon, Neil Gaiman, etc. gblvr posted about it in her lj and asked what we'd write in our fandoms if we only had six words. I joked (JOKED, I TELL YOU!) that she should start up a fannish challenge.

So, she did.

Ladies and Gentlemen: sixlittlewords. Fanfiction. Six-word minimum, six-word maximum. Have fun, and please pimp!

My entry, in honor of today's SCONJ ruling and the return of House on Tuesday.

ETA: For those who don't care if the six words are fanfiction and want an instant dose of about 350 entries, metafilter went nuts on it today.

My favorite from Wired was Margaret Atwood's Longed for him. Got him. Shit.
