We have chosen a winner: AMY HARTL SHERMAN, who wrote this beauty:

Write it down. Set it free.


And huge thanks to our inspiration for the six-word memoir contest, SMITH magazine, creators of the six-word memoir project. SMITH is currently accepting submissions for its newest collection (to be published by Harper Collins), "The Moment: An Instant When Your Life Changed."

Please feel free to continue adding your WHY I WRITE six-word memoirs, here, as well! Maybe a book is in She Writes' future, too.

For goodness sake! STOP FOLLOWING! Pl don't cram my inbox with hundreds of messages. I'll follow on my own. The She Writes Daily Mssg shd be enough. I set the 'stop following', but I am still being flooded with mail.
