In 2010 designer Anne Ulku, and writer Van Horgen, created Six Word Story Every Day (SWSED), a daily storytelling exploration through language and typography. It was inspired by the work Ernest Hemingway regarded as his greatest: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn."

All 365 stories have been archived here: sixwordstoryeveryday.blogspot.com and on Flickr

To purchase prints of these stories created by Anne and Van, please visit our Society6 shop.

In 2011, Anne accepted and curated submissions from writers and designers all over the world who created their very own six word stories. 365 stories, and one year later, we now have a complete two-year collection of beautiful six word stories. We hope you have enjoyed keeping up with our project as much as we have. All the submissions from such talented creatives, support and following has all been greatly appreciated. You have been what kept our project going strong. Thank you.

Check out a compiled list of top stories submitted from 2011, curated by Anne: Best Of 2011


Keep telling stories.

*And if you do, send them in, we may sporadically post worthwhile stories on this website once in a while, but will not be continuing with our usual daily story posts.


In the mean time, keep up with Anne and Van.
