For Those With Short Attention Spans, Or Senses of Humour

Wired Magazine asked famous authors to create six-word science fiction stories. Some are just too funny for words.

Some of my favorites:

Gown removed carelessly. Head, less so.- Joss Whedon

Machine. Unexpectedly, I’d invented a time- Alan Moore

Longed for him. Got him. Shit.- Margaret Atwood (I don't know ... this could be a romance, a biography, a mystery ... the possibilities with this one are endless.)

Lie detector eyeglasses perfected: Civilization collapses.- Richard Powers

The baby’s blood type? Human, mostly.- Orson Scott Card
