I need a story small enough to read on my phone.
I tape word inched along measuring its sentence.
The tape word inched along measuring its sentence. Some folks showed up and taped the word worm on him; they were itching to measure his sentience
but he just kept measuring sentences until he came to the end of the book. Then he leaped off the table and inched his way into a hole in the wall filled with encyclopedias.
Dr. Edgars was elated to have successfully engineered his first artificial life form: a literal bookworm. But now he needed to find it in that wall of encyclopedias, for he wanted
to create an entire ecosystem of bookanimals, and he needed that worm's DNA. He ripped out a page and made an origami bird, hoping to scare the bookworm out of the encyclopedias.
The bookworm revealed he was his late Uncle Johann. Johann was reborn to remember the meaning of books. His font was still in use when he died in 1815.
I was in the next room,1817, at the hospital, in traction. I heard this Uncle Johann bloke scream an enochian curse and then he died. I moved the only muscle I could to alert the
nurse, but unfortunately it was in an unmentionable location. The nurse snorted and left my hospital room. Meanwhile outside, dead Uncle Johann's curse was bending space, and I
found myself existing in multiple locations at one time. I felt myself experiencing every possible emotion at once. I became an omnipotent observer. I became everything everywhere.

Turned out to be quite a big story.

Tape words have a tendency to grow from fold to fold: http://foldingstory.com/5nbf9/
