Not Quite What I Was Planning
February 20, 2008 3 Comments
Quite possibly one of the briefest contributions I’ve ever made – Six Words. A recently released book called Not Quite What I Was Planning – Six word memoirs by writers famous and obscure features page after page of fun and interesting six-word summaries of life’s lessons. The editors at Smith Magazine asked for contributions on-line, and sure enough, mine was accepted (page 175) along with many others.
A few favorite samples:
- “Was rebellious teen. Now raising one.”
- “Good, evil use the same font.”
- “Awkward girl takes chances. Fun ensues.”
- “Always working on the next chapter.”
I won’t tell you mine – you have to buy the book to find out!
Lots of goodies in here – in fact, this is a perfect “bathroom book”!





The title has 6 words. Cute.

Hi Steve, I’m working with Rachel and collecting a “registry” for the book that includes the names and blogs of the contributors.

I’d like to add you to the registry if you don’t mind. Let me know. My e-mail is on the site.
