Non-fiction / 6 word memoir (Analysis)

If I get this one, I think it’s sad.  Thinking about writing, rather than writing, it’s a sad life to live, but if that’s your memoir, you described it well in a few words.  Now, stop thinking and get back to writing!

I do like this.  I was working on several at one time, most of which I’ve forgotten, but yours is far better than “I thought I’d have more time.” (which was the one I remember.
It makes you think, which I always find intriguing.

Reading this, Hamlet springs to mind – so, to “mangly” misquote Shakespeare : To write, or not to write, THAT is the question… Your six words seem to me to be asking that question – whether ‘tis nobler to put one’s life (or “many years experience”) onto a page or not. Or is the comma a substitute for the word “of” – which would indicate a longer period of hesitation? Very intriguing. I liked it very much, and I am glad I was able to read it.

Very good! I may be wrong, but do I sense that the word “of” could stand in for the comma? Or could it be the words “so I am” standing in for that comma? Am I close to it’s meaning? I like six word memoirs that are open to different interpretations. Nice job!

Many years to come, all alone.
I like this though. :]

The tragic truth. Many can relate. The problem of every writer, aspiring or bestselling.
