I liked many of the words on your site. I especially liked the Snippets of the unnamed story (maybe you should call it 'the unnamed'), It spiked my curiosity and I'm interested in reading more.

Thanks for mentioning '6 word story' site looks awesome, and a great exercise in minimalism.

The reason I gave only 4 stars was the actual layout of the site was a bit cluttered (like I'm one to speak). Also the colors contrasted a bit much (light orange and blue) though the header is cool.

Again the words are great (most important) but the blog layout is average.
