Week Twenty Nine: Brevity-ed

I started with the Mark Twain quote about writing a shorter letter and then discovered that everyone thinks it's Mark Twain but it isn't and then... well, things sort of took a different direction.

Here it be!

You have my full permission to print it out and use it in your very own line of ill-advised greeting cards. I wouldn't recommend it, but you do have my permission.

Any of you get anything out of this week's strange but brief prompt?

Week Twenty Nine: Brevity(?)

I have no idea. Had I heard the word for the first time and wondered what it meant? Maybe I suspected that brevity is the soul of wit but also had my doubts? 

Anyway: Write a story about brevity! Or write a story that is itself an exercise in brevity! Or you could even write a piece that questions the very nature of brevity. 

The world is (briefly) your oyster.
