My favorite has always been the one Hemingway wrote when he was challenged a story in only six words. He grabbed a bar napkin and wrote these six words.

For sale, baby shoes. Never worn.

Wow, that's actually pretty brilliant. In respect to that tale, I will refrain from any contribution for a time.

What do you suppose is his best work? Are there other short literary devices like this, meaning some set pattern for a minimalistic story? Such a bite-size written adventure is an interesting way to use words; though sadly indicative of a person's reading attention-span if they prefer such cursory undertakings rather than actual books.

Any other examples of accomplished writers writing Six word memoirs?

The Old Man and The Sea will always be my favorite of his. Haven't read it in years but had already read it three times before I was in highschool.

Now, I suppose, I should contribute.

Ignorance in bliss, yellows the pages

Life is not about the breaths you take, it is about the moments that take your breath away.
