Loved both, Chris. I don’t know why, but the darker ones are easier for me to write, too. I have a bunch of six-word stories in a notebook but seem to have lost or misplaced it!
Would really recommend it! Found it a great way to be present and in the moment because I'd be looking around me for a story inspiration each day. I ended up continuing past the 50 days and ended up with over 100!
Never again. Sigh. OK, once more.
Oh. I LOVE this. Nice work, Mark.
Loved it, Mark!
"I never kissed her," he lied.
Both of these are great, Sharron!
She danced their first dance, alone.
I wrote a bunch of these a few years ago, a lot were mini tragedies. Here's a cheerier one:
Lovesick. Caution: May Cause Terminal Happiness.

Hope you find the notebook!
Thanks Justin. They really are! I did an exercise years ago which was 50 Words, 50 Stories, 50 Days and the challenge was the light hearted ones!
This challenge sounds right up my alley! Haha, I hear you. I try to keep it on the “cheery” side at Along the Hudson, but it can be a challenge!
And thank you! I hope so too, even if my hope is fading fast. 😅

That’s commendable! Sounds like a great way to tune in to one’s surroundings. Thanks again for sharing this!
Time on my side, yeah right
Day dawns, still want to sleep
Winter sucks, 3 months to go
I feel all three of these sometimes!
Read. Write. Read. Write. What's Right?
Climbers found him after spring thaw
Oooh, now this is a story! Nice one, Jason. It makes me think of those unfortunate souls somewhere on Mt. Everest.
Ah, Christmas. To be eight again...!
Oh, the good old days!
Bourbon? Scotch? I'll take both. Please.
Both now, please. Into my veins. 😅
Instant gratification! Life is too short.
I feel like we could continue this six-word conversation for a very long time. (Wait, I just ruined it!) 😄
Just so you know, I haven’t forgotten about being “tagged.” I’ll send the story back your way one of these days.
Whenever. I have nothing but time.
Jenna was fired. The cannon worked.
I love the way your mind works, Gip. I think....
Ha, this one’s amazing. I love it. Thanks for sharing!
Always busy. Never alone. Good times.
I died. Or so I thought.
Whoa! This is awesome. I can see this as a six-word opener for a novel. Or imagine this being the opening line to an epic fantasy RPG?!
Thank you! I’ll give that some serious 🤔
Searched for him. Found him. Bliss!
Alarm rang. She woke up. Snoozed.
For sale. Wedding dress. Never worn. (Seeing this online, alot, lately.)
Loved your take on these, Jenise! And darn, that last one is kind of sad.
Yeah, that last one...sadly, I see it on our local Facebook Marketplace ads.
Thanks, Justin, for your encouraging words! Six-word stories are a challenge to write for me.
You’re so very welcome. They’re a challenge for me, too!
I hated the cold winter months.
I’m ready for sunny skies today!
Can you tell-sick of rain!
Escape the droplet... Real life awaits.
Yes!! Love it!
this is the one that is hard to share:
miss my honey, everyday still dead
🙏 Sending positive energy and prayers your way.
Cannibal chef ruins dinner. No wine.
My penis is burning. Call fireman.
Millions gathered protesting death. God laughs.

All three are brilliant! Thanks for the laugh.
