Say It In 7

by Shelly Kneupper Tucker on July 4, 2007

The World According to Suz has a fun [tag] writing contest[/tag] going on called “[tag]Say it in 7.[/tag]” You are expected to write the world’s shortest story. Rules: Each story must have only 7 words. You may, however, add a “By” followed by a fake author’s name, if it adds something to your story. Two entries, max., per person. All entries must be received by 11:59pm (MT) on 7-7-07 (that’s a Saturday night, people). She’s giving out prizes! WhooWHOO! I’ve got to give this a shot. If nothing else, maybe I can win the “booby prize.”

This one occurred to me this morning. Actually, it occurs to me every morning. It’s a true story, and the author is not a “fake one,” but I will submit it anyway:

Pounce fluttering eyelids,
Get breakfast.
Always works.

–By The cats

This story came from last night’s experience:

Travel/holiday/storms/darkness
equals transmission troubles.

–By Murphy

Oh, don’t even think you’ve heard the last of that story!

So get over to Suz’s house and enter. But, before you go…
Don’t you have a funny post hidden in your archives somewhere? Enter it in

A writing challenge! Exciting, and I sure need practice at only a few words, thank you m’am.

Can I assume if you didn’t have your crocheting in the car with you, you will carry it from now on so you can use that d o w n time for good? (But then down there, the sweat may ruin the yarn)

Oh, Shelly, your woes prompted me for the next comedy contest entry, could you have another one soon? Oh, never mind, I will write it anyway! I had written part of it on your comments and stopped myself.

There will be another contest…one of these days. You can enter then :lol: ~skt
