Can you tell the story of your life — or even just your day — in six words or less? Ernest Hemingway once claimed that he could tell a great story with just six words, famously writing: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." This week, John Mayer issued a similar challenge on his Twitter page, using Hemingway as inspiration. Mayer offers his own six-word story ("This heart didn't come with instructions") and asks fans to do the same.
Here's one you maybe haven't thought of: he's just not that into you. So, now I'm asking, tell the story of your life, or just a story, in six words or less in the comments section below. Good luck!
