Well, as the first day of the Let’s Be Brief writing contest draws to a close, I can report with considerable gratitude the idea has generated some genuine buzz out there. Yes, I can see the huddled masses, poring over their notebooks, sweat-stained brows furrowed as they ponder the intricacies of the six-word story challenge. (Then again, I could be imagining it.)

The list so far, in no particular order (via comments and/or email notification):
Liz Strauss, Hartley B. Singer, nowcleomind, Dennis McMullin, Chris Edgington, the mysterious indigoGlyph, someone named G.P., Dr. Ellen Weber, Lolita Barnsworth, David Armano, and Lucy. (Note: I’d like to link to you if I can – don’t forget to provide a URL!)

Special mention to Director Tom, who holds the distinction of being the very first to enter the fray, and Isabella Mori, who on her own tagged seven others to get in on the fun! (Gee, what a great idea; now if everyone would do that… hmm, I wonder how viral this could be? Front page of Digg, anyone?)

Keep ‘em coming, folks! You’re doing great!
