Six Word Memoirs: Tell Your Story

A while back, we asked you to tell your story in just six words, to write a six-word memoir.

SMITH Magazine published a handful of books full of them and we're going to speak with the founder of the project.

When we asked you to try your hand, we got a fantastic response.

Commenter JB wrote:

Believed I did 'A'. Accomplished 'B'.

Giuseppe Saitta tried his hand:

Born under fascism.
Thrived in Democracy.

Jderkis added this:

Long days, short nights: working Mom.

We discovered what SMITH Magazine discovered — sometimes it takes just six words to tell a touching story, make someone laugh or get an inside window to someone's head.

So, last chance, can you write your life's story in six words?
