The book is: <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0061713716\/\" target=\"_blank\">Not Quite What I Was Planning: Six-Word Memoirs by Writers Famous &amp; Obscure<\/a> <\/em>and it was edited by Smith Magazine. The book is based on Ernest Hemingway&#8217;s short story, &#8220;For sale: baby shoes, never worn.&#8221; The idea is to tell a story or describe your life in six words and the book is a collection of these. A few examples from the book jacket: &#8220;Found true love, married someone else.&#8221; &#8220;After Harvard had baby with crackhead.&#8221; It&#8217;s interesting reading and has set me thinking in many directions so it might be worth checking out if that&#8217;s your kind of thing. ~<a href=\"http:\/\/www.showmyface.com\/2008\/01\/six-word-saturdays.html\" target=\"_blank\">Show My Face<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Labor Movement: Thanks for the weekend!<\/strong> &gt;<a href=\"http:\/\/marketplace.publicradio.org\/display\/web\/2009\/09\/04\/pm-history-of-the-weekend\/\">link<\/a>&lt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Labor Movement: Thanks for the weekend! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[55],"class_list":["post-385","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-allaboutme","tag-6ws"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=385"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":468,"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385\/revisions\/468"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=385"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=385"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strathconn.com\/lady\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=385"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
