Write your six-word memoir contest

Can you write your whole life story in just six words?

That’s the challenge that lots of people, including some real authors, have been taking up on the website Smith magazine since last year, with sometimes very creative results. Like these:

Says deaf boyfriend: you’re too quiet.

Still a very bad Mormon. Yay!

Boy, if I had a hammer.

The best of these six-word memoirs have been collected in a new book, “Not Quite What I Was Planning.” It doesn’t come out till February, but the publisher, HarperCollins, sent me an advance copy and I fell so in love with it I had to blog early.

Some are from famous people.

Revenge is living well, without you. (Joyce Carol Oates)

Well, I thought it was funny. (Stephen Colbert)

A few more examples from regular folks:

Still lost on road less travelled.

Found true love, married someone else.

Eight thousand orgasms. Only one baby.

Once you start reading these, you feel compelled to do your own. Here’s mine:

She said yes. Everything else followed.

What’s your six-word memoir? Let’s have a contest. Send in your six-word memoir by midnight Oct. 15. I’ll pick what I think are the 10 best. Then I will post those entries, and everyone can vote on the best one.

The winner will get my advance copy of the book “Not Quite What I Was Planning.”

But contest aside, this is a great opportunity to express yourself creatively. Go to it.

OK, folks. The nominations have been closed. That was really amazing. Thank you all, and now on to the voting.

‘was right, but it didn’t matter

wasted too much time w/ worry

If I knew then what I do…

prayer does work, He IS listening!

Family first, friends come and go

hard work makes the heart appreciative

I was right, then wrong…..repeat!

People who keep score cheat alot.

I experienced five minutes of love.

Women were available. I wanted unavailables.

I fantasized killing ten separate acquaintances.

I only knew the pain of love.

My breath was so bad people fled.

Everyone’s going to hell except me.

People are evil, God will punish.

Afterlife’s groovy, here it really blows.

Lived and realized people are pirates.

I never met an honest man.

People will crucify god for money.
