May I include yours on the list? If you are willing, just say so when you read that post at Weekend Wordsmith. I like yours. Mine is on that list already, along with the others. Some people, like Elizabeth who commented here, didn't stop at six words and submitted more than one 6-word memoir ... but that defeats the purpose, doesn't it?
These are all good. You guys are putting some heat behind these. Maybe I should drop you all back to THREE words or something, just to up the challenge level. :)

Not sure if this is the right phrase but today it sure feels like it. By not overscheduling our lives we seem to have found more time to enjoy what we do and explore. But this one was the first thought in my head. Elizabeth is right though, I could have a myriad of bios.
Love your short bio.
ReplyDeleteAs per New Yorker article - lots of fun
off the top of my head
mine might be:
Lived in foreign parts: missed England
one could have lots of short bios for different moods.
Like sonnets - a formula forces you to be creative.......
Love this, Sara! I won't consider myself tagged because I'd want to steal your bio--it's perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love this. Even more points for you.
ReplyDeleteI haven't created my six-word bio yet.
Love love love it. Thanks for playing! :)

Oh my, it's easy to obsess over six little words. So many possibilities!

Not dull – a phantasmagorical sleeper agent.

(Actually the second one could be my story, too.)
