We're doing a project in Language Arts class based upon your ideas. A very creative thought you had in creating this.

-Very Nice!

None of these are even remotely comparable to Hemingway's.

Great idea, great concept, and a creative twist on the Hemingway story.  I will be buying.

"Uncompromising "short" stories transforms inconsistent reader."

I wrote that in celebration. I read and write, but don't read books often. I picked up Not Quite What I was Planning. One of the most unique books to ever inspire me to write six word-memoirs of my own.
