Cool news -- Six word stories
Publishing your six-word stories, PART 1
OK, so we'll be publishing the best of your Six-word Stories over the next few months. And here's one presentation that's cool: Six Pieces in Six Words in Six Minutes to be presented by the writers and the Vermont Symphony Orchestra at Flynn Center on Dec. 5.
The following six-word stories were selected by the VSO and were passed along to a young composer who created one-minute musical interpretations of each. Each of the writers get up on stage, read the words and then have the VSO follow by playing the musical interpretation of the story... Then the next author will read, and so on. Concerts again are on December 5.
Here are the selections.

I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled poets to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean.
