Hello, fellow wordsmiths and Thanksgiving enthusiasts! Are you ready to add a dash of excitement to your holiday season? Look no further because we have a thrilling contest lined up just for you: the 6-Word Thanksgiving Memoir Contest. 

Thanksgiving is a time for family, feasts, and unforgettable memories, both heartwarming and hilarious. And what better way to capture those moments than with a succinct 6-word memoir? Whether you’ve had Thanksgiving mishaps that would make a turkey blush or heartwarming gatherings that warm your soul, we want to hear about them.

The Rules Are Simple:

• Your Thanksgiving memoir must be exactly 6 words.
• The more Thanksgiving-themed, the better!
• Post your entry as a comment right here (no emails, please).
• The submission deadline is November 24, 2023, at midnight, so you have ample time to cook up the perfect 6-word memoir.
• Enter as many times as your creative spirit desires! The more, the merrier.

Now, let your creativity take flight as you reminisce about your most unforgettable Thanksgiving moments. Perhaps it’s a tale of a legendary turkey disaster, a heartwarming family reunion, or a comical twist that turned the day into an adventure. Whatever it may be, we want you to distill it into just six words that will leave a lasting impression.

Need some inspiration? Here are a few examples to get your creative juices flowing:

• “Pumpkin pie: love at first bite.”
