I chose to write a six-word story. Here is an example from Adobe.
This one comes courtesy of Ernest Hemingway who famously wrote, “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” Your own story doesn’t have to be so dark or so big but try to boil something meaningful to you down to just six words. Then try to write one every day for a week. Perhaps even add your six-word story to an image in Adobe Express (like the one below inspired by a movie) to share on social media as a way to inspire others and get feedback. #sixwordstory

Here is the story: My dog likes playing in water.
