Actually, I think we do even more starting with pickett's word (and changing the 2nd S to a T). 6 letter word might be: tapers

keep pickett's original words (without the double S)

Rapes

Spare

Pears

Parse

Reaps

Spear

Pares

and with the T, this should include at least the following (and probably more).

tears

rates

stare

tapes

taper

traps

tarps

parts

perts

paste

strap

probably even more...

Nice puzzle!
