These are wonderful and each says so much using few words.

This is such a fun exercise, Kathryn. Good practice for compression in writing and preparation for writing that (Longer) log line for your novel. It occurred to me that the title of my YA novel could be a 6 sentence story: "One is not a lonely number"

I love this idea, Kathryn, and I love what you've chosen as your six-word stories. I have a problem with wordiness, too. I know that I write long messages, texts, emails etc., and often get teased by friends and family, although in an affectionate way (I hope!). I've been working on keeping my blog posts shorter - up to two minutes read time maximum. I'm improving with practice, but I would like to give this challenge a go. The dinosaur story was delightful. X 💕

Oh, learning to curb... it’s an art I want to master. Your photos added the rest to the concise words. How amazing, dear friend. And who doesn’t have time for these gems? Thanks for prompting me to try. You’re my hero. And I am so lucky.
