Six Word Memoirs

Not Quite What I Was Planning



Poetry Challenge
"When Hemingway famously once wrote, For Sale: baby shoes, never worn, he proved that an entire story can be told using a half dozen words. When the online storytelling magazine SMITH asked readers to submit six-word memoirs, they proved a whole, real life can be told this way too." Not Quite What I Was Planning offers a curious collection of famous and not so famous writers with their pint-size literary gems. What's Your Story? Source:

Bittersweet romance
Found true love, married someone else

Achievements and stinging regrets
After Harvard, had baby with crackhead

Some other mini masterpieces
Cursed with cancer. Blessed by friends
I still make coffee for two
No wife. No kids. No problems
