A Very Short Story
33 writers. 5 designers. 6-word science fiction.
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.
Dozens of our favorite auteurs put their words to paper, and five master graphic designers took them to the drawing board. Sure, Arthur C. Clarke refused to trim his ("God said, ’Cancel Program GENESIS.’ The universe ceased to exist."), but the rest are concise masterpieces.
Among those contributing to this compilation of stories are people such as Margaret Atwood, Stan Lee, Alan Moore...well, among others. Not to forget this gem, written by the one and only Joss Whedon:
