I'm calling this Sal's 4 Word Stories. OK? Make 'em up and post 'em here.
The idea is a rip-off from the Guardian's 6-word stories seen elsewhere on these boards. Perhaps we could send them to the Grauniad* en masse and get some publicity for FWFR and benj!
So, an evocative [even shorter] story in 4 words.
Here are a trio to start you off:
1. Robins fledge. Cat. Oops!
2. Cake's baked, iced. "Congratulations!"
3. "Mom?" "Darling!" "I passed!"
* Grauniad, for those not in the UK, is a nickname bestowed on the paper which has more than its fair share of spelling errors, despite some excellent editorial content.

Saddled. Bridled. Mounted. Tossed.
Funny! Laughed! Stared at.
Opened mouth. Engaged brain.
Engaged brain. Mouth shut.

Not sure if these are strictly 'stories' or just evocative lines that push you make up your own story
'Course I love you
Chemo unsuccessful. I'm sorry
I never told her
Miss? ahh, bad news...
Life: hatched, matched, dispatched
You're not the father
Size doesn't reeeeealy matter
Please contact the clinic
We never spoke again
I Do ..... I Don't

Here, Adam. An apple.
Want fries with that?
Baby?? Is it mine?
I loved, I lost.
Black man is lynched.
Paris jailed. Released. Jailed.
The series:
Eyes meet. First kiss.
Will you? They married.
Honey, it turned blue.
They have a son.
Harvard wrote, you're in.
Lawyer marries college sweetheart.
Mom? It's a girl!
Years pass, happy holidays.
Cancer? Are you sure?
He dies. She waits.
Old woman, rocking chair.
She sleeps, white light.
Following light, he awaits.
Eyes meet, first kiss.

Thank you :) I was thinking of my grandmother mostly, after my grandfather died. She waited 10 years in a wicker rocking chair on her front porch and died in her sleep. None of us went to Harvard, but hey, license! |
