Hello Niles librarians and teens! I’m Rachel, the co-creator of the Six-Word Memoir project and co-editor of NQWIWP. We’re thrilled you guys are running with the concept, and happy to tell you we are currently working on an all-teen six-word memoir book. Please contact me after your workshop, and we can consider your memoirs to be published!
Thanks!

Hello Niles Library Folk — After reading a fascinating story about this book in the newspaper, I created a page about it inviting visitors to leave their own six-word sentences. If you would like to read it and possibly leave your six-word sentence, you can find it at http://www.squidoo.com/yourlifesentenceinsixwords.I am guessing you’ve already given some thought to the topic so adding your six-word sentence should not be hard! I hope you’ll visit…
