You’ve made it to Day 24 of the annual Slice of Life Story Challenge!
If you’re sharing your students’ slice of life stories, please head over to the Classroom Challenge.
Given that my One Little Word for 2017 is brave, this quote is the perfect one for me today. Just taking this challenge in the first place is brave, and sometimes when we write from our soul, from places of deep emotion, it really requires courage!
Quote of the Day

Be Inspired
Earlier this month, Kristy Louden wrote a powerful post that required courage to share. Be inspired to be brave with your writing, and check out her post here.
