Six Word Memoirs

Have you ever tried this fun writing exercise? A six word memoir tells a story or expresses an idea in exactly six words. It’s so satisfying — the constraints really stimulate your creativity. Recently, I used this prompt in a writing group, and I’m thinking of some of my own. Here are a few:

 

Turned eleven, missed the Hogwarts Express.

Unexpected challenges gave me unexpected gifts.

After Vienna: Paris, Athens…the world! (yes, I know I said I don’t love traveling. lol.)

G-d has a sense of humor.

How did I get this lucky?

 

Enjoy writing your own, if you try this!
