Deceptively simple and surprisingly addictive, Not Quite What I Was Planning is a thousand glimpses of humanity—six words at a time. One Life. Six Words. What's Yours? When Hemingway famously wrote, "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn," he proved that an entire story can be told using a half dozen words. When the online storytelling magazine SMITH asked readers to submit six-word memoirs, they proved a whole, real life can be told this way too. The results are fascinating, hilarious, shocking, and moving. From small sagas of bittersweet romance ("Found true love, married someone else") to proud achievements and stinging regrets ("After Harvard, had baby with crackhead"), these terse true tales relate the diversity of human experience in tasty bite-sized pieces. From authors Jonathan Lethem and Richard Ford to comedians Stephen Colbert and Amy Sedaris, to ordinary folks around the world, everyone has a six-word story to tell.

All of the stories in this collection are six words in length. Six Word Memoirs are a form of Flash Fiction which is a style of fictional literature or fiction of extreme brevity. The most concise and widely cited example of flash fiction is the story Ernest Hemingway penned, allegedly to settle a bar bet: "For Sale: Baby Shoes. Never Worn." I hope you enjoy these short memoirs, most are from the imagination but others reflect daily life in all its pathos and glory.
