Welcome to the second day of the 15^th Annual Slice of Life Story Challenge! I’m happy you’re back today.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

The most important announcements of the day are contained in this video. Please have a listen before you head off to comment on other Slicers’ posts.

This year, I’m prioritizing commenting on new(er) Slicers‘ blogs first. If you’re new to our writing community, be sure to say so when you’re leaving the link to your comment! This helps longtime members of our writing community to welcome you. (BTW: Seasoned Slicers, I’ve seen many of you welcoming our first-year Slicers. I truly appreciate your congeniality!)

Multi-Lit Friday is an opportunity for participants who write in other languages to share their slice of life stories in another language! The first Multi-Lit Friday is two days away (March 4th).

Do you want to show your commitment to this challenge with some new apparel, tech gear, or jewelry? Visit our Cafepress store where you can purchase t-shirts, coffee mugs, water bottles, keychains, and more. **All proceeds from our Cafepress store are donated to the Pajama Program.**

BE INSPIRED

Sherri Spelic, of Sherri’s Slice of Life Project, used a six-word stream of consciousness to craft this slice of life at the end of last year’s Challenge. It’s a challenging and fun structure to try. Click here to check out her post.
