Memories on Mondays???

Posted on Wednesday May 14, 2008 by Stacey

Jane, who is a regular with the Slice of Life Story Challenge, suggested that we host “Memoir Mondays” here at Two Writing Teachers. I think it’s a wonderful idea, but need to know who else would be interested in joining something like this.

Here’s what I’m thinking with regard to Jane’s idea that she suggested on a post I wrote earlier today. I’ll break it up using the 5 W’s and 1 H:

WHO: Any blogger who’d like to capture memories in a public forum.
WHAT: A forum to share memoir-like entries.
WHEN: Every Monday (or perhaps the first and third Monday of each month if every Monday seems like too much)
WHERE: Here at Two Writing Teachers.
WHY: To record the important memories from our younger days.
HOW: Mr. Linky (of course) will help link everyone’s posts.

Please let me know if you’re interested by Thursday, May 22nd. Also, please let me know if you’d be up for this “challenge” weekly or bi-weekly.

Possible cute logo if it’s a-go:

    Stacey,
    You are sweet to give me credit, but it is YOU who are the inspiration!! I would really LOVE to be a part of something like this, as you know. At my age I have a lot of reflecting to do!

    You know I love participating in your challenges, Stacey! I’ve been struggling to keep up with reading these last couple of weeks, but I would still be up for every Monday if that’s the prevailing vote!

    I think it’s a great idea. I would be up for doing this bi-weekly (does that mean twice a week or twice a month? I can never remember. I mean twice a month!)
