A reader sent me this, and I thought it was too clever not to share. Thanks, Hugh3s!

Hi Tim,

I found your site, “Fifty Word Stories,” and found it interesting. With a few weeks of no updates, I was depressed to find that you were on hiatus.

So I decided to write a fifty-word story instead. I sat down at my computer and came up with nothing…

In case you don’t know what I found so great about it, count the words (as if you should have to do that with anything on this site).
