Six Word Memoirs.

[KaciBlakely]

As many of you know I am a writer for fun.

Well do any of you know what six word memoirs are?

The idea stems from a literary legend. We don't know if it's true, but as the story goes, Ernest Hemingway was once asked to write a story in six words. His response: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." That's at least as good as The Old Man and the Sea.

So the idea is to right a life story of you or a life story for someone else to describe the epitome of the person in just six words.

I thought this would be a fun thread to have so I'm starting it out with one or two I wrote.

Here's the two I just wrote.

1. Rejection burns like fire on skin.
2. He feels like an autumn day.

Well there are the first ones please participate and let's have fun with these.

**** happens when you party naked

This made me spit my drink out, and my nose burns from soda coming out of it.

I literally laughed out loud. Love this one. Vickid.

The music understands more than you.

See something different than they do.

Remember. Always play with better musicians.

Outhink them. Outlove them. Outlive them. - Cheated on that one, oops.

Someone should shut you up. Immediately.

"I don't care." I was lying! - I've said, and thought this so many times, so I finally put it down on paper. THought Tay might be able to relate.

Relate to what, exactly? Sorry Kaci, I'm kind of confused. It's been a long day, haha. Sorry for being slow.

[KaciBlakely]

I just meant the -"I don't care." I was lying -one.

I say this to my husband all the time, and it's obvious he should know I'm lying but he's a guy and that's the only excuse I have and he has for his stupidity.

lol.

That's all I meant by it.

Get it now?

Ah, I see. Yeah see I'm one of those weird people who actually doesn't care when I say I don't, lol. I know, I'm strange, especially for a woman. *shrug*

[KaciBlakely]

I'm in a writing mood. Here's some more I've written.
I'm so glad I can actually write now, even if they are not good.
I hate it when you get writers block, grrrrrh.
But here they are.


I'm much smarter than you think.

No divine leap of faith. Yet.

Bad acting. Bad lying. Good times.

Fought some battles. Lost them all.

Want to give him the finger.

"You act like a white girl."

Even the Bible says, "Everything's meaningless."

I like the last one, Kaci.

[KaciBlakely]

Thank you very much. It also happens to be true.

I'm not writing anymore for the night.

Well here's one for the nsync fans, including myself.

And then I'm out, have a great night everyone.



Always knew Lance Bass was ***.

lol.

Good night.

[woohoosue]

Can I linger in this moment.

Everlasting love began with short smiles.

Good intentions only noticed when bad.

Fear leaves you naked and exposed.

My heart beats to your rythum.

[BnLM5]

These are pretty cool Kaci. I did not know what they were. Thanks for sharing. I keep thinking of them in my head now. But every time I almost have one, there it goes...? But if I come up with one that somewhat sounds good to me, I will send you a PM so I don't make a ding dong out of my self in front of the entire NDN world. But I'd like to see what you think. Because I am not a writer so..... that't that :+)

Have you ever thought about teaching?

[KaciBlakely]

I don't think I could handle kids, I mean I know I'm going to have too.

Can't undo the pregnancy afterall but I'm kinda nervous around my own little cousins, and nieces, and nephews, and I never really thought about teaching actually.

What made you think of the idea though?

It's a nice thought, thank you.

[KaciBlakely]

Here's some that I'm trying to make into a story at the moment. It's much harder than I thought it would be, ergh.

Don't tell Charlie his daughter's dead.

It's angry and painful at first.
Teeth, nails, bruises, fists, broken bones.
It is something foreign and unexpected.

Her fingers glide over every scar.

He watches her walk away forever.

Because everything is bigger in Texas.*--- *This one is funny and I'm from Texas so never knew our Texas saying could fit into one of these, lol.

In some ways, this doesn't count.

His teeth are in her neck.
"I'm the worst monster you'll meet." ---- These were inspired by Twilight, and vampires, can't you tell?

doesn't cry when her father dies.
she's done crying, none left anyway

I wish I could make something out of these but I don't feel like writing today and if I do it might suck like the above do. ergh. frustrated over it.

[KaciBlakely]

Fear leaves you naked and exposed.

Ugh. This is so breathtakingly beautiful. I'm telling you Sue. It's brilliant.

Love, Love, Love this!

[freeringo]

Being a hillbilly is neverending bliss.

Is that 6 1.2.3.4.5.6 yep 6

[freeringo]

Trapped in Ego will cause blindness.

[woohoosue]

friends are so close they hurt

[woohoosue]

unbandage your hate and bleed love

[woohoosue]

No greater hate than friend's betrayal

[woohoosue]

heartache so painful your chest expands

[woohoosue]

once a joy.......now a judas

[taylovesthebeatles]

I hate, and I love. Why?

[KaciBlakely]

Being a hillbilly is neverending bliss.

Is that 6 1.2.3.4.5.6 yep 6

That's greatness, lol.
Love this.

I don't know exactly what made me think that. Maybe because you explained this so well. And you don't have to be a teacher that involves children. I was thinking more along the lines of teaching college or young adults. I don't think children will quite understand how to write these anyway.

[woohoosue]

on motherhood:

Motherhood is teaching of one's self.

You give life. you teach love.

on Life:

Listen, understand, think, present possible actions.

on love:

do not haste when in doubt.

My sweetness, I miss your taste.

[woohoosue]

That's greatness, lol.
Love this.

Now are you a hillbilly?

And where are you from? lol.

nah he's not a hillbilly ...He can count to 6!
