2) Write a six word memoir – A six-word memoir tries to tell a story in just six words. For instance, when the famous writer Ernest Hemingway was challenged to tell a story in just six words, he responded: “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” Smith Magazine challenged famous and unknown writers to contribute and received over 11,000 responses, some of which were collected in Not Quite What I Was Planning: Six-Word Memoirs by Writers Famous and Obscure. Here are a few of them:
- I’m ten, and have an attitude.
- Anything’s possible with an extension cord.
- Revenge is living well, without you.
- My reach always exceeds my grasp.
- Never should have bought that ring.
- Found true love after nine months.
