Why I love Sci-Fi

The editors at Wired magazine had a good idea: an entire story, in six words.

Apparently, Ernest Hemingway did this once, considered it one of his finest works...



Here are some of my favorites:

"Machine. Unexpectedly, I’d invented a time"
-Alan Moore

"Internet 'wakes up?' Ridicu - no carrier."
- Charles Stross

"I’m dead. I’ve missed you. Kiss … ?"
- Neil Gaiman

"The baby’s blood type? Human, mostly."
- Orson Scott Card

"Computer, did we bring batteries? Computer?"
- Eileen Gunn
