Recently, Wired magazine ran an article with six word stories from a bunch of sci-fi authors.
These are brilliant, both from a writer's point of view, and from a reader's.
My favorites are (somewhat predictably) Joss Whedon's (he of BtVS fame), and all of Margaret Atwood's (author of The Handmaid's Tale). Make sure you read all the way down to the bottom for her last one - I think she's been trolling fanfic.....  |

That was brilliant. Perhaps we should start our own. I'll be first to try my hand at it.
Voldemort dead, Harry survives! Hooray Potter! |

Those were great. What about this for book 7?
Horcruxes, destroyed. Voldemort killed Harry anyway. |

Me too. She updated at the end of Sept, and I spent most of today (sloooooow day at work) rereading it. 
Similarly....
James likes Lily. No reciprocation. Problem? |
