Six Word Story Every Day

Be still my typography loving heart! Six Word Story Every Day (SWSED) is a daily project showcasing beautifully designed stories—all comprised of six words. It was inspired by the work Ernest Hemingway regarded as his greatest: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." There is some serious design talent contributing to this project, but they also invite people to submit their own work.
