senior: six word memoir


hemingway was once wrote a six word story for a bet: "for sale: baby shoes, never worn." smith magazine took this and came up with a project called six word memoir. it's become their most popular concept, and there are people who submit multiple memoirs a day. people have even taken it upon themselves to include artwork or video, and books are now being published. check out the site at: http://www.smithmag.net/sixwords/

    Hi Dana,

    This is Alyssa from SMITH Magazine. Thanks for mentioning us!

    Love the illustration. Are you submitting to smithmag.net? My editor, Larry, loves pieces with visual components.
