Hemingway's with a twist.


Whenever anyone talks of 6-word stories, the name Hemingway crops up.

"For sale: baby shoes, never worn" is mentioned with awe. And rightfully so.

Mr. Ernest Hemingway deserves every ounce of applause for setting the ball rolling on this genre of flash fiction. Hats off to him.

But doing what he did ages ago would be a tad boring, right?

That's why, I decided to add a sumptuous layer of meat to the 6-worder.

What if, we have a title for the Hemingway yarns?

Won't that add another juicy dimension?

Think about it.

"For sale: baby shoes, never worn" with 'The Poor Mom' as a title seems very different when viewed through the prism of 'The Sympathy Trap'.

That's precisely the point of Six Fics.

It's like a movie with a one-line plot.The title just lends it a point of view.

If you see some merit in this new sub-genre, do take some some time and read my creations, chapter by chapter.

It's a work in progress.

And I plan to stop at 111 chapters.

Do send me your feedback by writing to unantha@sixfics.com.

See you around.
