Twenty Word Story Challenge

Heyitsjiwon

One Thousand Club
While many people appreciate the giant pieces of literature, ranging from the ancient epics like The Iliad and the Odyssey to the more modern pieces like Brothers Karamazov, I believe that short stories at times are just as amazing as these behemoths. They are stories that stretch the creativity of the writer through a word count limit highlight how versatile and thought provoking words are. For example, Ernest Hemingway's attributed six word novel:


For sale: baby shoes, never worn






Thus, I want to see people to demonstrate their mastery over words and phrases. I've been having a rut in creating such meaning with an economy of words, and I hope this challenge can help everyone step up their writing a bit, or at least learn something. So, the challenge is to write a story with no more than 20 words. You can obviously use less if possible. After all, more is not always better.
