Science fiction stories in six words.

March 1, 2009 12:57 AM

Science fiction stories in six words. Some by well known scifi authors. Click "Previous Articles" for earlier stories. For me, A.S. Byatt's is most haunting. A sub-genre of "Six Word Stories".

It's nice to see that AS Byatt takes time out of her busy schedule to post to a site where some of the commentators can't even count to six.

Knowing this was Sector Seven--Sarah had up to Sector Nine clearance ever since her promotion back in Glorgon-Seven of the Year of Depend Hyperspace Diapers--her suspicions were immediately aroused, like the guys that look at her. Raising her deformed, but sexy, haunches up to the silver ceiling of the SSSS Falcon Freedom Chips Fighter X2000, Mark 754, she drew out her Plasma Neutrino Grand Unified Theory Miasma Weapon from her Deluxe General Electric Zeno's Paradox Fanny Pouch, slowly unlatched the safety, and pitter-pattered across the linoleum floor on her deformed, but sexy, feet.
