The author Ernest Hemmingway was once challenged to write a complete work of fiction in just six words. He accepted the challenge and penned the poignant:
“For Sale: Baby Shoes. Never Worn.”
Years later, the same challenge was issued worldwide by the storytelling website SmithMag.net: Write your life story in just six words! It is called a “Six-Word Memoir”.
Last year we had over 110 entries so for Mother’s Day this year we’re once again putting our own spin on the “Six-word Memoir” called a “Six-Word Mom-oir”. Whether you are a mother or just have one, everyone has a six-word story to tell about motherhood. We’ll choose our four favorite Six-word Mom-oirs about being a mom or your relationship with your own mother to receive a $50 Gift Certificate to DZ Restaurants.
