@Seral3: We did say that Hemingway was challenged to write a "story", but what we do at SMITH is about personal stories, so we adapted the idea to memoirs (and gave credit where it was due).
Sorry you're not into it.
I'm personally really proud of all the excellent contributions we got from people all over the world. It's been a really fun project to be a part of -- especially since everyone can be a part of it!

The song is Stretch by Pedalsped, a Bay Area band.
