Six-Word+Memoir

**Six-Word Memoir**
We based this writing on the book //[|Not Quite What I Was Planning]// and the corresponding piece on [|NPR].

We've decided to post our memoirs without the explanation paragraph that accompanied their submission. For the time being, we'll let these six-word insights act as a representation of where we are now and how we got here.
