How is it possible to struggle with generating an idea to Slice about?
So many different things happen throughout the day.
I got up early and worked out this morning. But, nothing memorable happened.
I made my usual drive to work this morning. But nothing memorable happened.
I taught Scholars in a hybrid remote learning environment. But, nothing memorable happened. Although, I am very impressed with the growth my Scholars are making during small group reading time.
I attended TELPAS training. It's a Texas thing. Then, planned with my team. But, I probably shouldn't write about that.
My drive home was uneventful...a blessing actually. Afternoon traffic can be intense, sometimes.
I will say, however, something surprising happened this evening during my Tuesday writing group. I got to meet, via Zoom, someone I had only known through interactions on Twitter. My Twitter-Friend, DH joined my writing group, and I could not have been more excited to put see his face and hear his voice. Now, we get to communicate beyond the occasional Tweet.
So, I guess I really did have something to write about. I guess I just needed to start writing this post for it flow onto the page.
Hi Donnetta,
ReplyDeleteI love that about writing - how once you start writing, you sometimes find out what it is you wanted to say. I'm glad you were able to meet your Twitter-Friend on Zoom and will get to know him better now!
"Slice about" is a such a great phrase! Verbing writing words is great too. I usually end my comment with "thank you for sharing" but maybe I could just use thank you for slicing.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of the Currently format I tend to use at least once during the Slice of Life challenge. Isn't it great when an online friend and you can finally connect in a way that feels more real than just DM-ing? Like hearing their voice. It's a game changer. And by the way it was great finally putting a voice to your writing after Sunday's Facebook Live.
ReplyDeleteI like the format. It reveals snippets of a day. You are a connected person. It is exciting when the connections that are in writing mostly become more personal with seeing and hearing the person live, even if through screen.
