Co-Editor Larry Smith reads excerpts from Six-Word Memoirs on Love & Heartbreak
Thought 140 words on Twitter was limiting? Try writing your story of love and heartbreak in six-words. Smith Magazine–an online magazine that focuses on personal narratives-presented the newest of the “Six-Word Memoirs” series, “Six-Word Memoirs on Love and Heartbreak.”
Though some of the books pages are graced by famous names like Mark Ecko, Janice Dickerson, and Dr. Drew Pinsky, the bulk of contributors are “obscures” which refer to readers of the magazine who post their own memoirs on the site. In fact, the book has 800 total contributors, the most of any book.
