Your story, in six words
Are you familiar with the Six Word Story?
“A six-word story is an entire story told in six words. It is a short narrative that can have all of the emotional themes of longer stories—from funny to dramatic, sad to scary. It can be poetic or straightforward.”
Legend has it that Ernest Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. Others gave their own spin into the six-word novel - a personal twist to describe a life in exactly six words, sometimes called these Six-Word Memoirs.

“While these quick stories don’t have the classic beginning, middle, and end of a traditional storyline, they have a subject and verb that give the reader a sense of what’s happened and a bit of conflict.”

Good evening to you,
Emerging, growing, embodying this moment is somewhat like a lepidopteran, a butterfly, as they break free from the chrysalis, usually near the head end, pushes its way out, wet, shriveled wings, and a large abdomen, it hangs upside down laying there drying out its wings, then flaps its wings to pump fluid into them, then rest awhile to dry. Once the wings are ready, the butterfly flaps them and begins to look for nectar.
So, if your wings are ready share your story or simply talk about what this all means for you. Best to you. Don't cross any major highways, head for the fields and streams in the countryside, and get back to us with your adventures.
Happy flying, Jofree
