I cannot believe it has been almost four years since I have written and updated my blog. My last post was from March 31, 2015. Wow, have things changed in my life. I’ll fill you in on that throughout the month.
I am going to do the Slice of Life Challenge for the third time. I completed it in 2013, 2014, and 2015. I am excited about conquering this challenge again. I am going to make it a priority to write each and every day for the month of March. I find that when I have a goal in mind, it gives me the boost and the motivation needed to get it done.
Just how do I plan on accomplishing this goal? Here is a slice of what life is going to be like for me during the month of March…
- Make it a priority to write for at least 15 minutes each and every day.
- Observe the world around me and share my unique point of view.
- Find small things to focus on. Things that speak to me by either making me happy, sad, thoughtful, inquisitive, pause or whatever speaks to me on any particular day.
- Post my thoughts and wait patiently for comments.
- Post thoughtful comments about what other people have written. It is great to write for an audience who actually reads what is written.
- Enjoy the month! It is going to fly by way too fast.
I cannot wait to get started sharing ideas and interacting with others during the month of March. I have missed this. I am so glad that I have decided to take on the challenge once again.
Welcome back! Slicing helps you find your voice. Focus on a “bit” of writing – even around a picture or two. Once you get started it becomes addictive! You can do this! 🙂
Welcome back! This is my third year, and I agree with Fran (above) that writing (and Slicing) is addictive. If you are looking for a little daily incentive and some writing ideas, perhaps you’ll join us in the Teach Write Facebook group. It’s a wonderfully supportive community! You can find out more at https://www.teachwrite.org/. Happy Slicing!
Fran this is year two for me and I am excited and nervous. Posting your goal for the challenge as a simple list makes it seem very doable! I am looking forward to reading your posts!
Sounds like the break from the SOLSC gave you a recharge! Wishing us all luck on the journey this month!
Yay, love your list. It is going to go by fast…good reminder to enjoy it!
