Six-Word Memoirs from East Bay STC Members

Once asked to write a full story in six words, legend has it that novelist Ernest Hemingway responded: "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn."

In our last newsletter, we put out a call for East Bay members to reflect and write their own six-word memoirs. Here are the responses. We thank them for taking the time to contribute.
