IMPORTANT: If you are a slicer, and you’re going to be at NCTE in Boston, please think about joining a Slicer Meet-up. Let us know your availability on this form.
Throughout the month of October, I’ll be hosting the Slice of Life. Whether it’s through poetry, journaling, or story, share your work by linking to your blog in the comments below.
While you’re at it, share the love by offering comments to fellow Slicers!
As for me, my Slice this week highlights some of the work I did while reading Lynda Barry’s book, What it Is. You can check out the review in yesterday’s post.
