120822 Warm Up

Today's GrokIt:

A much forgotten literary technique is the Six-Word Story.

What's a Six-Word Story?

A Six-Word Story should provide a movement of conflict, action, and resolution that gives the sense of a complete story transpiring in a moment’s reading..using only 6 words.

How do you write one?

What are some examples?

Even Ernest Hemingway did it!

Now, it's your turn. Write a Six-Word Story about tech, for example: "Why is my toaster pinging China?"

Post it up on Slack!
