Not Quite What I Was Planning:
Six-Word Memoirs by Writers Famous and Obscure
Just six words? I struggle with anything that asks me to limit my words to only 100 or 250. Yeesh. I love reading what the others have said, though, and if you check it out on Amazon, you can actually read the first few pages worth, along with the editorial descriptions and commenters who posted their favorites.
Some are sad like the 9 year old who wrote "Cursed with cancer. Blessed by friends," or "Girlfriend is pregnant, my husband said." Others are funny like "Seventy years, few tears, hairy eyes," or "Catholic school backfired. Sin is in!" Yet others are thought-provoking, confusing, pure truths, or just whatever.
They're written by famous people, unknowns, kids, older people, artists, pop musicians, doctors, homeless....you name it, it's there.

I will have to take some time and think of my 6 words! Very thought-provoking!
