It’s a good story. But it might not be true. Online fact checker Snopes has investigated and ruled the story “undetermined”. A further source, Quote Investigator, says Hemingway’s very short story was first reported in the 1974 book Get Published! Get Produced!: A Literary Agent’s Tips on How to Sell Your Writing by Peter Miller:
Apparently, Ernest Hemingway was lunching at Luchow’s with a number of writers and claimed that he could write a short story that was only six words long. Of course, the other writers balked. Hemingway told each of them to put ten dollars in the middle of the table; if he was wrong, he said, he’d match it. If he was right, he would keep the entire pot. He quickly wrote six words down on a napkin and passed it around; Papa won the bet. The words were “FOR SALE, BABY SHOES, NEVER WORN.” A beginning, a middle and an end!
