Six-Word Digital Memoirs
“For Sale: baby shoes, never worn”

Six-Word Digital Memoirs
A memoir is a personal story based on your life. A
six-word memoir is one of those personal stories,
but told in only six words. This means you must
choose your words precisely so your memoir has
as much meaning as you can squeeze into it.
It is not just coming up with a clever sentence or
personal motto (i.e. “I love going to the mall!” or
“Live life to the fullest everyday!”) It must be six
words that hint at a much larger, more intricate
story.
