True tales of love, loss, good friends, and bad hair days filled Not Quite What I Was Planning, the bestselling first book in the Six-Word Memoir series. Some of the best were written by teens, so the editors decided to create a collection of memoirs written entirely by those bold, brash truth-tellers.
