What is a Six Word Story?

A Complete Story In Six Words.

Famous American author, Ernest Hemingway has been credited with creating the short, short story. In the 1920’s Hemingway’s colleagues bet him he couldn’t write a complete story in 6 words. “For Sale: baby shoes, never worn.” He proved them wrong; and is said to consider this his best work.

During ARToberfest at Hutchinson Center for the Arts a large chalk board will be available to participants throughout the day to come and try storytelling in just six words!
