My dad's wife Jackie invited me to participate in a special blogging event through the month of March. Basically, you write a blog post every day, share it with other bloggers who are doing the same, and comment on a few of their blogs.
It's called the Slice of Life Story Challenge, but to me, it doesn't sound so much like a challenge as an excuse to use words! Thousands of words! Every day!
It's no secret—I love words. Finding something to write about daily won't be difficult; I've got Giant Cookie Reviews and MacaroniQuests and torrential thoughts about anything and everything aplenty. What will be a challenge is remembering to share my links with the Slice of Life community every day before midnight. Prattling incessantly is one of my strengths...participating in communities is less so.
But I will do it! I have done it, by writing this introduction! One day down, 30 to go!

I love how you are viewing this not as a challenge, but as a way to use words! Wonderful way of phrasing it! Best of luck with your Slices!
Valerie, so glad you are joining the SOL challenge. I look forward to learning more about you and reading those words you share with the community. It's a great place to share and to learn.
Love your enthusiasm. Glad you are joining in and look forward to thousands of your words.
This made me smile, "It's called the Slice of Life Story Challenge, but to me, it doesn't sound so much like a challenge as an excuse to use words!" I'm wondering if I will be able to think of something to write about every day and then I read your words. I love the way you are thinking about the challenge. It will be fun. It won't be hard. It will be play. I suppose there's always a story waiting to be told.

Yes, that sounds like you, Valerie...an excuse to use words...which you do so well. Welcome to the Slice and enjoy. Jackie
