It’s been awhile since I last wrote a “6-word story.”
For those of you who don’t remember . . .
The Nobel Prize winning author, Ernest Hemingway, was asked if he could “write a compelling story in six words.” His response : “For sale: Baby shoes. Never worn.”
Hemingway’s story is powerful, because it leaves space and silence for us to fill in the details. It inspires us to write the story—to fill in the blanks, to scribble on the white pages. We become the storyteller.
Today, my “6-word story” is:
Weaving Cultures Around the Thanksgiving Table
May the few six words of this story draw you in.
Allow your wild imagination to take over and create a scene—filling in the details and blanks. May my few words and my silence provide the needed space and silence to write your own story—to paint a picture in your mind.
Stay tuned for a follow-up post tomorrow. I will fill in the blanks for you and write the words of my own “6-word story.” Until then, may you become a “Cultural Story-Weaver.”
Write, create, let your imagination run wild! Tell us your own story in the “comment” box below.
