Synopsis
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., Deceptively simple and surprisingly addictive, Not Quite What I Was Planning is a thousand glimpses of humanity-six words at a time.

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., When Ernest Hemingway famously wrote "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn," he proved a whole story can be told in the short, short form. When SMITH Magazine asked readers to submit six-word memoirs, they proved a whole, real life can be told this way, too. From bittersweet romance to gratifying divorce ("Found true love, married someone else"), religious faith to smoking crack ("Mormon economist marries feminist, worlds collide"), proud achievement to stinging regret ("Never really finished anything, except cake"), these true tales tell the diversity of human experience in strange, funny, scary, relatable, bite-sized pieces. Famous contributors include: * Dave Eggers * Aimee Mann * Mario Batali * Sebastian Junger * Joyce Carol Oates * Jonathan Lethem * Elizabeth Gilbert * Chuck Klosterman * Daniel Handler * And many more.
