“Taming the dragonfly.” Photo by Mary Chang Story Writer

Photography, Inspiration, Writing Challenge

A Photo is Worth Six Words

Finding inspiration through photography, simplicity & community: Inspiration

Taming the dragonfly — boy makes magic.

Can you tell a story in six words inspired by a photo?

This is a collection and kudos for the stories from the community of 75+ writers who participated in my 6-Word Photo Story Summer Challenge (2021) — which inspired me to create this new publication, Six Word Photo Story Challenge!

To find out how the boy tamed the dragonfly, read the full story here.

If you’d like to apply to be a writer and submit to this publication, please go to the submission guidelines.

Get out that camera and start snapping photos or dig into your photo archives — you’ll be amazed at what stories you create with only six words and a photo.

Need inspiration?

If you’re writing a six-word photo story, these stories below may inspire you to create one. They’ll make you wonder, hope, laugh, cry, nod, or smile.
