Description:

Can you sum up your life in six words? How about this week, or even just today? For this series, create your own six-word memoir. Make it funny. Make it serious. Make it memorable! :)

EDIT 06 February 2013 - After being asked by a participant, I wanted to clarify that the word "a" does indeed count as one of the six words when used in a memoir for this swap.

EXAMPLES OF 6-WORD MEMOIRS: Just enough coffee to shake me. In simplifying life, it's gotten complicated. I know I can do this.

EXAMPLES OF WHAT NOT TO WRITE AS A MEMOIR: mother, wife, happy, free, student, American ETC. Do not write a list of adjectives or descriptors, give us a memoir!

You will have two partners to which you will send your PC, and since this is a flat mail swap I will keep it international. I will be hosting 1-2 of these series swaps every month depending on interest. Let me know if you want them more or less often... <3

Postcards may be store-bought or handmade. However, handmade postcards should be of good quality (card stock with stickers does not qualify as good quality).

I will ban questionable swappers with recent 1's or 3's, as well as anyone with a rating lower than 4.8. For the time being, I am allowing newbies. However, I will require you to have a fully filled out profile to participate. Please message me if you have concerns about the potential of being banned.

I will angel if we have flakers, but I am committed to doing my best to prevent that from happening.

I have also started a 6-word memoir ATC series for those who desire a more artistic means to express their lives in words. :)

This swap was inspired by the Smith Magazine web-site

Can I mail my homemade postcard in an envelope instead of directly? So my postcard doesn't get damaged in the mailing process? NEWBIE here....

rainy, contact your partners to ask them. some people do not mind but others will down rate and it's best to ask them.
