Welcome once again to the Slice of Life Story Challenge!
Some words of wisdom from two of the great ones:
Writing is like baseball or piano playing. You have to practice if you want to be successful. ~Betsy Byars
You don’t have to fight dragons to write books. You just have to live deeply the life you’ve been given. ~Katherine Patterson
WRITE your slice of life story. 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.
Enjoy!
