Hello, and welcome to this week’s Slice of Life Tuesday! You know, I often teach students about the essence of Charles de Lint’s wisdom, but I must remind myself that the same applies to me – and all of us. We all have important things to express.
What stories do you have to share today? What new ideas or wonderings do you wish to put out into this big, beautiful world? All are welcome to write, and share. While you’re at it, give other writers’ links a visit and share some comment love.
TWO WRITING TEACHERS 
I was so deep in thinking and writing this slice that I forgot the time. Here’s an idea to make Back-to-School Magic for learners.

I never put off writing til the afternoon, but thanks to my fellow bloggers who push me to deliver, no matter what, on Tuesdays, maybe I’ve got to accept that writing can happen any time of day. I showed up!https://jumpofffindwings.wordpress.com/2023/09/05/twenty-two-years/

Coming to the white screen felt a little daunting this afternoon. I almost didn’t write, but Lainie’s call for slice-of-life stories was that proverbial kick in the pants I needed. I haven’t written anything earth-shattering or groundbreaking in this non-slice story. It’s merely an update about my absence. But, here I am. https://raisealithuman.wordpress.com/2023/09/05/summertime2023/
Looking forward to connecting with all of you again!
