Day 11 of the Slice of Life Story Challenge 2026

Melanie Meehan

Yesterday you were almost 1/3 of the way through, and today you’re more that 1/3 of the way through! By now, you’re making connections. Maybe you’re noticing the world in a different way as you find slicing moments throughout the day.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

  • Each day’s “Call for Slice of Life Stories” opens at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time. If it’s before midnight in New York, post your story link on that day’s post. After midnight, use the new day’s post. Comments usually close after 24 hours, but may stay open a bit longer if our team needs more time.
  • We had our first Classroom SOLSC yesterday! Students around the world would welcome your comments if you have time to read and respond.

BE INSPIRED

Becky Lucas write at Bloggin’ Becky, and her post about persistent callers will resonate with many readers. I love that even unwanted callers can provide a slice.

SUPPORT

If you encounter any issues with non-working links, problems with your permalink, or a permalink causing an image to appear in the comment section, our Slicer Troubleshooting Team is here to help. The team comprises four experienced Slicers: Glenda Funk, Fran McCrackin, Joanne Toft, and Peter von Euler. (Click here for a short tutorial to help you find your permalink and link your slice-of-life story to this post.)

For inquiries, please email us rather than leaving them in the comments below or on social media. We appreciate your patience as we receive a high volume of emails in the early days of the challenge. We will respond to all emails promptly.

Please direct specific questions to the appropriate co-author.
