Six Word Memoir


Six-Word Memoirs is a special project created by Larry Smith, founder of Smith Magazine. Smith was inspired by Ernest Hemingway's legendary six-word novel, "For sale: baby shoes, never worn."


The challenge is to feel the weight of words, and recognize their importance. Since the project began, Six-Words has seen over 200,000 six-word memoirs and published five books, including Six-Words on Love and Heartbreak, and I Can't Keep My Own Secrets.

[Info from http://www.twloha.com/news.php?nid=159]



So... Here's the deal.
Try this challenge.
Let your emotions and feelings and struggles out.
In 6 words.
A 6 word Memoir.

2010-08-13 [Talos Cyrion]: ooh interesting

2010-08-13 [Iruvielle]: That's a good one, Anthony. :)

2010-08-13 [Iruvielle]: I've read some very interesting ones today...
"Once felt worthless, realized I'm priceless"
"We heal strongest in broken places"

Just a couple of the many I've read.

2010-08-13 [Talos Cyrion]: that's cool

2010-08-13 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i'm trying to think of one for me

2010-08-13 [Roxcie]: Hmm, I'm gonna have to think hard if I post something! :O xD

2010-08-13 [Ghost the Hybrid]: can we post more than 1 btw?

2010-08-13 [Iruvielle]: Yep, you can!

2010-08-13 [Ghost the Hybrid]: ok thanx

2010-08-13 [Koho Ai]: *brain overload*

2010-08-13 [Iruvielle]: Don't hurt yourself Evol.

2010-08-13 [Koho Ai]: Too many ideas it sucks being able to write there is just to many words to choose from.

2010-08-13 [Ghost the Hybrid]: and i can't think of anything>_<

2010-08-13 [Iruvielle]: Leave for a bit and just let it come to ya Mia. :)

2010-08-13 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i probably will but your is so good kafy

2010-08-13 [Koho Ai]: Just let everything go and close your eyes and write about what ever you feel.

2010-08-13 [Iruvielle]: Exactly what Evol said, Mia. :)

2010-08-13 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i did it:D

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: Good job. ^.^

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: thanx, it's nothing great tho

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: It shows your emotion, that's what makes it unique and good.
That's the point of this challenge... to look deep inside yourself and find your true emotion, your true feelings... and write them in 6 words.

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i know, i know but everyone else's sounds so poetic somehow

2010-08-14 [Talos Cyrion]: if it's any consolation to you Yume i happen to be a poet. It's not about comparison...simply coming up with whatever six word phrase that best suits a description for your emotions (to be honest six letter also is amazing because it at least for me really makes me think)

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: makes me think too...
and i've had a lot of experience with poetry...
this comes naturally to me.

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i've been doing some poetry too but i still think that your sounds more beautiful than mine

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: That last one was really straight from the heart too.

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i'm sorry kafy

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: Don't apologize Mia.
And don't bring that in here. :P
Don't need everyone fussing about it. XD

I was just sorta pointing out that it was straight from the heart because this is the best time for me to write my most powerful stuff.

2010-08-14 [Roxcie]: I'm not sorry, Kafy :3 xD

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: Good, you better not be.

2010-08-14 [Roxcie]: That's right! >:P xD

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: now is the time for me to be tired

2010-08-14 [~Valkyrie~]: I'm not much of a poet myself, but every once in a while something just takes shape. I wasn't even thinking about this when I came up with mine.

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: That's the best way to do it.
I thought up another one just this morning. It just came to me when I woke up. :)

2010-08-14 [Koho Ai]: I am a poet so a million things hit me at once and I have to choose appropriately cause some are more violent then others.

2010-08-14 [Talos Cyrion]: aww would have been nice to know i'm not the only one who can get visceral in their writings :p

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: You're not Anthony. :P

2010-08-14 [~Valkyrie~]: No, certainly not.

2010-08-14 [~Valkyrie~]: No, certainly not. I just tend to be a little more vague about it most of the time.

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i'm not really good at anything

2010-08-14 [~Valkyrie~]: I highly doubt that Yume.

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: well that's what i've always heard

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: Mia, you are amazing at tons of things.
Even more so than a lot of people.
Don't you say you're no good.
If you weren't good at being such an amazing, caring, sweet friend, you wouldn't be my friend... or my "husband" :P
*huggles Mia*

2010-08-14 [~Valkyrie~]: *laughs* Well, I don't know you, so listen to Kathy. :p

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: *huggles kafy* thanx kafy but it's sometimes hard to believe when you've heard that you're not good enough enough times in the past

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: The past is the past for a reason, hun.
But, I know what you're saying.
You've just got to forget the past and live for the future.

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i know and i'm trying to live in the now:)

2010-08-14 [Iruvielle]: Good.

2010-08-14 [Ghost the Hybrid]: *smiles*

2010-08-14 [~Valkyrie~]: *smiles*

2010-08-15 [Ghost the Hybrid]: whee^^

2010-08-17 [Ghost the Hybrid]: if you wonder what my last is about then check out my second pic(the one under the photo of me) in my house^^'

2010-08-17 [Koho Ai]: Yes I see this

2010-08-17 [Iruvielle]: Evol... you are doing some good ones there...

2010-08-17 [Koho Ai]: thank you its a pleasure since I have poem writer block I have to get my mind back into gear

2010-08-17 [Ghost the Hybrid]: all of them are good:)

2010-08-17 [Koho Ai]: Quit luring me here with comments.... lol not to shabby yourself

2010-08-17 [Ghost the Hybrid]: lol thanx:)

2010-08-17 [Iruvielle]: Muahahaha! *random evil*

2010-08-17 [Koho Ai]: *smiles showing fangs* your evil has no effect on me

2010-08-17 [Iruvielle]: Who said I was being evil to you.
And put those fangs away...
I have no desire to see those aides to merciless killings.
*zips mouth shut and acts all innocent*

2010-08-17 [Koho Ai]: *puts fangs away and watches you with one eye* >_*

2010-08-17 [Iruvielle]: *puppy eyes as I shine me halo* >.> <.< 0=) I's an angel... >.>

2010-08-17 [Koho Ai]: *falls over laughing nearly killing myself*

2010-08-17 [Ghost the Hybrid]: meow?

2010-08-17 [Koho Ai]: Don't worry laughing won't kill me

2010-08-18 [Iruvielle]: Why does everyone laugh when I say I'm an angel? >.>

2010-08-18 [Ghost the Hybrid]: not me i'm just confused

2010-08-18 [Iruvielle]: Evol and I have an interesting friendship. :P
I run with the wolves... he's a breathless bloodsucker...
haha!

2010-08-18 [~Valkyrie~]: Hey, Vampires tent to take offense to such words. :p

2010-08-18 [Iruvielle]: Oh yes, I know.
Thus why I say them! :3

2010-08-18 [Ghost the Hybrid]: *stands on evols side in this case* i used to be more of a wold person but i'm a vampire fan now^^'

2010-08-18 [Iruvielle]: That's okay.
I'm a lone wolf. I don't mind standing alone.

2010-08-18 [Ghost the Hybrid]: aww*hugs* i really like to be a mix but i don't think that that's possible or is it?

2010-08-18 [Koho Ai]: OHHH THE HYBRID and your nothing but flea bitten puppy dog Flail *Sticks tongue out*

:D
Haha.
Aren't we just the best of friends? :P

2010-08-18 [Ghost the Hybrid]: yes?

2010-08-18 [Koho Ai]: Oh you know it buddy *air hugs* "Ain't getting anywhere near ya though you wet dog smelling toilet drinker"  oh yeah hybrid is the form of a vampire and werewolf combined by being bit by both and surviving both bites. Only one has ever done it

2010-08-18 [Iruvielle]: Mmm, nothing tastier than toilet water! :D

2010-08-18 [Ghost the Hybrid]: meow? XD

2010-08-18 [Koho Ai]: You say that now, but you haven't had a hot blood sundae yet. Now thats delicious!!!!

2010-08-18 [Iruvielle]: Ew. *shivers* Not to mention, sundaes would make me sick. Lactose... >.>

2010-08-19 [Iruvielle]: I have to or else I become REALLY sick and basically live in the bathroom. T^T

2010-08-19 [Ghost the Hybrid]: so do i, i still don't care at times^^'

2010-08-19 [~Valkyrie~]: *laughs* I love playing a Vampire in the Cam (the show True Blood is based on the writer's time playing in the Cam. :D), but I suppose perhaps one day my lover will drag me to a Werewolf game. Who knows, he may be able to convert me. :p
At least Werewolves aren't a bunch of backstabbers. :p

2010-08-19 [Ghost the Hybrid]: *sits in a corner and listens*

2010-08-19 [Iruvielle]: *nods* No, we aren't.
We're actually a very noble bunch. :3
Loyal and loving, as wolves should be.
*stares at Evol* Unlike some people... >.>

2010-08-19 [Ghost the Hybrid]: meow?

2010-08-19 [Koho Ai]: *walks in with a bloody daggar* huh someone call and we old vampire are very noble unlike the newbies that the werewolves wound up by presenting themselves to them.

2010-08-19 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i don't know where i belong >_<

2010-08-19 [Koho Ai]: *holds out bloody daggar* join us child and you shall be forever immortal and trained under the best of the best.

2010-08-19 [Talos Cyrion]: lol, I run with the wolves.... though i suppose, and i can't believe i'm conceding to this and accepting the term 'hybrid'....so i guess that lands me with Yume...idk where i belong

2010-08-19 [Ghost the Hybrid]: i'm half vamp half were so i'm a hybrid*shrugs*

2010-08-19 [Talos Cyrion]: cool i'm not alone!

2010-08-19 [Ghost the Hybrid]: *dances with the other hybrid*

2010-08-20 [Iruvielle]: *shrugs*
That's alright, I'll keep my allegiances with the wolves.
Besides, I don't mind being a lone wolf.
I kinda like sticking out like a sore thumb. :P

2010-08-20 [Koho Ai]: *checks the stocking list* Where the hell are the cookies at?

2010-08-20 [Iruvielle]: *holds up bag of cookies* Looking for something. :3

2010-08-20 [Koho Ai]: *looks at the bag* Not the oatmeal raisin cookies the chocolate chip ones

2010-08-20 [Ghost the Hybrid]: *shrugs and eats the oatmeal raisin chocolate chip cookies*

2010-08-20 [Iruvielle]: *holds up another bag of cookies* You mean THESE chocolate chip ones?! :3

2010-08-20 [Darkness Wrath]: "Those don't belong to you." *Darth Vader theme playing in the background*

2010-08-21 [Iruvielle]: *laughs* Well, they're mine now. *evil laughters and disappears off into some random distant woods*

2010-08-21 [Darkness Wrath]: *is standing beside you eating the cookies* I have the sith you can't hide from me

2010-08-21 [Iruvielle]: Baaaahh...

2010-08-21 [Darkness Wrath]: *walks away cutting down the forest with his light saber*

2010-08-21 [Iruvielle]: *watches*

2010-08-21 [Darkness Wrath]: *points lightsaber at you* you don't stand a chance pup don't even think about it

2010-08-21 [Iruvielle]: I didn't say a word! *smug grin*

2010-08-21 [Ghost the Hybrid]: O_o

2010-08-23 [Darkness Wrath]: *Scowls and contiues cutting*

2010-08-23 [Koho Ai]: Because Onision is a influence on me

2010-08-23 [Ghost the Hybrid]: *takes what ever [Darkness Wrath] is using to cut with*

2010-08-27 [Iruvielle]: Ummm...
That one isn't really inspirational Evol...
No offense. It's funny, but it's not totally inspirational to others.
It's kinda...
