Welcome to our weekly Slice of Life Story Challenge! At Two Writing Teachers, we believe in the importance of a writing community. Please leave the permalink to your own blog post, and comment on at least three other posts. We all know how much comments mean to ourselves as writers–please share your writing and be generous with your responses!
Imagine my surprise just now at discovering that today is Wednesday, not Tuesday. 🙂 Oh well, I got up early to write, so here you go. https://alotalot.wordpress.com/2017/09/06/slice-of-life-first-day-2/
