Is anybody else sick of the six-word phenomenon? Apparently the editors of Smith Magazine aren’t, because they’re now releasing an anthology of six-word love stories.

The book is called Six-Word Memoirs on Love & Heartbreak by Writers Famous & Obscure, and it includes such gems as “My life’s accomplishments? Sanity, and you” (Elizabeth Gilbert), and “It’s just a matter of luck” (Ayelet Waldman). What do you think: six word fad — cute or over? [USA Today]
