Very short science-fiction story.

Postby Age of Fable » Thu Dec 02, 2010 7:32 pm

My very short story With This Device has been published. It's 22 words long, and you can read it .

Very good. It rates right up there with Hemingway's famous short ""For sale: baby shoes, never worn." You even came close to my personal favorite short SF: "He was the last man on Earth. Then, there was a knock on the door."

Or the winning short for a mystery story containing religion, royalty, and sex: "'My god,' said the queen, 'I'm pregnant. I wonder who the father is?'"

So, when can we expect the sequel?
Games of imagination are never truly done. Yet tomorrow we shall start another one.

I've written others, so hopefully Nanoism will want some of them.
