Welcome to day 15. You’ve made it to the halfway point of the challenge!
If you’re sharing your students’ slice of life stories, please head over to the Classroom Challenge.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Are you a last minute, write by the seat of your pants slicer? Or do you plan ahead? Introducing two new badges! Feel free to take and use the one that applies to you.
BE INSPIRED
- Former TWT co-author Dana Murphy wrote this slice during last March’s challenge. It’s an imaginary conversation with her doctor about why she will not give up her afternoon coffee. Perhaps you have a habit you want to write about today.
