I will admit to looking back at last year's slices this year. I have to tell you, that I don't have to look back on your slices to reveal my favourite. You wrote - was that last year? -about dancing around your house, moving to the music. It made me happy.Mardiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12237463317290624819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-813621891229967468.post-60787886295572958482013-03-11T23:56:48.984-04:002013-03-11T23:56:48.984-04:00You are brave to look back while you are in the mi...You are brave to look back while you are in the midst of the challenge! I remember all those past slices--still some of my favorites. You have captured a clever way (as usual) of packaging a poignant reflection on who you are as a writer.

We provides connection and emotion and story. <br /><br />I have a 10 year journal that I started last year. 4 lines every day. I love it and this is the first year I can read exactly what happened last year. It will be exciting year after year after year.<br /><br />Keep writing! I love your stories. And c'mon, just tell us to keep it a secret and it will be all good. ;) Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04822472844833732246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-813621891229967468.post-34377113112858323232013-03-11T22:50:06.361-04:002013-03-11T22:50:06.361-04:00I hope I can make it this year & future years....I hope I can make it this year & future years.

Is my life that boring that I can't think of anything else? But then I remind myself that this is what writers do: they write about what they know well, they write about their experiences and passions. Maybe I will discover a hidden interest by slicing. Tam, I agree. Slicing preserves little bits of ourselves for those to come. I would have loved to have a look at my grandmother's day to day life.Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03957066112909102850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-813621891229967468.post-44773889490556724742013-03-11T22:28:19.628-04:002013-03-11T22:28:19.628-04:00Great reflection - I have noticed familiar topics ...Great reflection - I have noticed familiar topics appear from one year to the next. I actually consider it revising; you know, recreating the sameness into something more unique. Your writing has a uniqueness every time that enriches our writerly lives.

All I care about really is that I have left some information to family who go ahead of me. Will they some day be interested? I regret not asking more questions of my family members when they were still around. It's all good.
