Challenge Nook
Reported by Christina

My first month heading up the Challenge Nook and the theme was to Look in the mirror and pick one of your features such as eyes, hair, smile . . . and then to write a poem about this feature. It elicited some interesting perceptions. We hope you stop by and check them out.


Continuing Story Nook
Reported by Christina

My first month heading up the Continuing Story saw us writing a tale about....well, you'll just have to go read it! It was a lot of fun, and as Carol was kind enough to start it before she left I wrapped it up after the girls took us on a wonderful journey as scenes played out in their imaginations. As the one heading up the Nook, it made for some interesting reading as each submission came through. The end result was a wonderful story entitled "Betrayal". And we invite you to stop by to read this tale.
