Slice of Life Story Challenge

Day 3 of 31: SOLSC

Stacey Shubitz
The Second-Ever, Month-Long Slice of Life Story Challenge Begins HERE Today!
We're delighted you are joining us for the Third Annual Slice of Life Story Challenge!

It’s the third day of our month-long writing challenge! Please link your Slice of Life Story, using the exact URL of the post you’re submitting today, to this post by leaving a comment before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time today. Just scroll to the bottom of this post to leave the link to your writing for the day.

Earlier today I spent some time recording who submitted their writing yesterday, as a comment, by 11:59 p.m.  I noticed there were a few people who posted under different names on the first and second day.  Therefore, when you post a comment, please use the same name everyday.  As you can see, there are a lot of people to keep track of for prizes, so using one consistent name when you post helps me give you credit for writing daily.  In case you’re interested, here’s what the spreadsheet looks like (you may click on it to make it bigger):

My records for the first and second day of the Challenge. Please note: As long as you submit your writing, using an unique post URL, each day by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, you will get credit for the day's writing.

  8. Stacy,
    I noticed from your chart that you have a NO on Day 1 for us, but we did do it. I’m not sure why my post didn’t show up on Day 1. Maybe I posted it somewhere else. I’m going to search for it in the comments.
