espresso stories
These bits of fun were inspired by Guatemalan writer Augusto Monterroso's
short story 'The Dinosaur'. The story - in its entirety - reads: 'When
he woke up, the dinosaur was still there'.
That one sentence has everything: a protagonist, a setting, a plotting
and even some character development. (I like to think it's a little boy
who'd been dreaming of dinos, one of whom stepped out of the dream.)
So here are a few 'single sentence stories' of mine, at the esspressostories.com
website.
