WRITE your slice. SHARE your link. GIVE some comments to (at least three) other slicers.
If you’re leaving your comment early in the day, please consider returning this evening or tomorrow to read some of our evening posters’ slices.
I’m going to update the list of year-round Slicers, which presently resides on the footer of this blog. Please check the blog footer for the category of “Year-Round Slicers.” If you’ve been slicing for at least a year (i.e., March Challenge and most weeks during the rest of the year) and your name is not on the list (but you’d like it to be), then please let me know. Thank you!

Squeezed in this slice…it was on the want to-do list, but so was rocking my girl too. (Thanks Amy! You provided me a glimpse of me last couple days.)

Today’s slice is on my professional blog instead of my personal one. “The More You Know…”

If there’s a bunch of SOL pictures on there it’s because blogger was doing weird things.

I posted my slice above – but forgot to mention that I’d love to be put in the “year round slicers” section. I miss some weeks, but I’m here most of the time!

Finally back to slicing after a long summer break! Here’s the surprise, a reflection inspired by my orchid plant.

http://readwritethinkgrow.blogspot.com/2013/09/settling-in-to-routines.html
I think my new plan is to shift my regular slices to my new blog Read Write Think Grow. I’ve realized that I can probably only keep up one blog, so for now, I think my slices will have a literacy focus in order to fit well with my blog that I will be using the most (or maybe the only public blog I will be using).
Where would you like me to link to in the master slicer list? Should I change it to http://readwritethinkgrow.blogspot.com? (Just want to be sure.) Thanks Amanda.
Hi Stacey,
Sure, I think you can switch it to my new blog. I am pretty sure that it will be the only main place I will consistently blog for now. Thanks for checking.
Good luck Ruth on your new path and thank you, Stacey, for continuing on. I just started this new writing adventure and I am blessed to be a part of it!

A Few More Memories . . .

I needed to whine a little bit last night. And sometimes that helps me move on. But if you don’t want to hear me whine, you can skip this post and read the affirmation post I wrote on Friday 🙂 http://deb-day.blogspot.com/2013/09/how-about-little-cheese-with-that-whine.html

I wrote a bit the past two weeks, but never “in time” to link up! Here’s today’s post.. about how we can laugh over not being able to do it all..

I must try to figure out how to do better next year. http://lcinmo.wordpress.com/2013/09/10/failed/

Just a quick small moment from last week.

Thanks, Ruth, for your part in Two Writing Teachers. Best to you in new challenges. Thanks, Stacey, for continuing. I love being part of the SOLSC community!
My slice today comes from writing celebrations in the classroom:

It’s been a challenging start to the school year. Reminds me that I have much to learn….still!

It is not just students anad teachers at school. Our custodians are SO important! They have dreams roo!
http://jaanaswritingblog.blogspot.com/2013/09/from-janitor-to-college-student.html
Part of me wanted to write a witty post honoring Ruth (another day) or about moving on to new challenges (another day) or about the power of a writing community (another day). Today, this little slice of my life is a model of how the little pieces of life really can become fuel for our writing. One day, my son left a feather duster at my house…..the rest of the story is here..
