Coming in April, 2012...

After last year's successful April A-Z Challenge, I didn't think that I would continue blogging. I tried a few more times (poor examples, which I have since deleted), but haven't really blogged since then.

Recently, I read an article in the Oprah Magazine about "Ernest Hemingway's legendary shortest of short stories (For sale: Baby shoes, never worn)." I was inspired to jot down a few six-word stories of my own.

Now, I'm attempting to have one six-word story for each letter of the alphabet, and to share them daily in April. I hope that these quick glances into life will inspire you to rethink the power of brevity!
