Now accessible to mortals

My titles are often six words

So, I’ve been a big fan of Clarity Sage’s Six Word posts for a while. I liked One Sentence.org and Post Secret and Group Hug.us, so maybe I just like people that do a lot with a little. But recently, it occurred to me that we could start turn her six word posts into a group blog of sorts in which a buncha-buncha people (4-7) would update.

The idea (as it now stands, possibly to be revised soon) is that everyone’s posts would just be really short, pithy six word stories.  Haikus was also thrown out as a possibility.  Either way, it would be regular updating in some constrained writing of some sort.

So the call out is this: Who would like to participate?  I mean, I’m not silly, I still remember the last time I tried to organize something in the internet and it failed miserably… because of my own inability to organize.  But I think this could even be better this time.

I mean: how could it not?

  4. Hello Scott,
    Wow, this is beginning to look like it’s going to be a really good blog. I’m really quite very excited.

    Ashley!!
    Very, very yes! Okay, I think this makes five. I’ll talk to Clarity Sage about setting it up now. But first: I have to camp out in the woods for three days. :-D

  5. If I get involved
    I wish to do it in verse
    Haiku seems best, no?

  6. that sounds like fuuuuuuun. would there be more guidelines? more of a theme than just “six words” or “tell your secret” or whatever? or just a basic free for all as long as it met that one certain criteria?

  7. It’s intriguing, and would solve my problem of not having time to blog satisfactorily…

    Also, grouphug.us kept me alive during Latin last year, until my school blocked it. Like, what?
