    This idea came from a new book I heard about on the Tom Dunne show on 106FM.

    Ernest Hemingway was once given a challenge in a bar to come up with a 6 word short story. His reply was:

    For sale, baby shoes, never used.

    This idea sparked a book of people giving a 6 word biography or story, with over 25000 people adding in their story

    Anyway, maybe we can get this going and see what cool stuff comes up:)
