Six Word Memoir
Posted under Being RSG, Higher Learning by Recovering Straight GirlA while back, Grumpy Granny tagged me to write a Six Word Memoir. I wasn’t blowing her off–just busy dealing with children and going to museums and movies and seeing former presidents and feeling like crap from a cold.
Well, guess what my first assignment is for my Creative Non-Fiction class?
A Six Word Memoir. And because I’m an over-achiever, I’ve written several. Tell me what you think:
“Evolving, Awakening, Discovering—My Amazing Life.”
“Discovering my Self was ultimate freedom.”
“Never again will someone mistreat me.”
“My partner completes who I am.”
“I wait patiently—for sunny days.”
“My teenage daughter makes me crazy.”
It’s super fun. You should try. (That’s not a memoir, just a suggestion.)

You’re kidding! Was that really your first assignment? I love serindipity!
I like: “Discovering my Self was ultimate freedom”
Go for it!

I agree with GG, “Discovering my Self was ultimate freedom” is my favorite of the bunch.
What an assignment! I’ll have to think about that! I like:
“Evolving, Awakening, Discovering—My Amazing Life.”
“wells fargo bites. they screwed me.”
“blue eye shadow. bring it back.”
“in my next life, toaster ovens”
Oh I can go on for days!
I love the first two…….they are both creative, and powerfull…
Good luck
What a great assignment. I think I’m going to steal it for my blog!
Teenage thing I can totally relate. But really they all sound good,
Disccvering yourself is always a good “catcher”. People want to know how you’ve done it, of course for their-selfs.
Living life with arms wide open.
Trying extra hard, afraid to disappoint.
So in love with my wife.
Wishing Jen was still a teen. (Yes, I am really that crazy!)
Young mother, older lesbian, loving life
Hey, wait a minute! You stole my memoir! “My teenage daughter makes me crazy!” That was mine. Mine Mine Mine!
Oh wait. Maybe that experience is universal.
