March Writing Assignment

Ok, I'm a little apprehensive about asking anyone to write much of anything, but if you want to you can, if not, well throw this email in the garbage can. I am about to take a trip, and so I am asking you to write about your trips. Maybe you went on one that was the best ever or maybe the worst, or you went some place that changed how you look at things, it literally could be whatever, just something, even your own backyard if you are so inclined.

February Writing Assignment

Ok I know this subject is kind of "out in left or right field". But it hit me and I had to see if other people would write about this too. What is the stupidest, craziest, silliest, thing you did as a kid? Think of it as a belittling session, or a way to get something off of your chest that you couldn't before. Mine is something(s) you simply have to see to believe. Everybody is taking lumps this month, why not you too? If you don't have anything... well, maybe you could tell us what your kids, your brother or sister, or even your friends did instead.

He's Back

I'd like to re-welcome Alex Moody to the fold. He used to blog at his site MoodyTunes and now has a new blog with a new name and a new town to boot. Check out Words and pictures  and see what you think.

November Writing Assignment

I know this is a bit cliche, but hey what part of the holidays is not cliche? So I want to know one of your most favorite things to eat/drink/consume for the holidays, a recipe (if you have one), and perhaps a back-story on what makes  this such a scrumptious thing in the first place. Extra points if you have pictures. So what is it about the holidays that makes it "the holidays"???

As always, this is not a requirement, but more of a suggestion, some of the blogs need to have the dust blown off of them... just sayin'

October Writing Assignment

I know it has been several months since I last put a writing assignment up here, I really can't say why, but it is what it is. Sorry about that. So now with the weather turning cooler, and Halloween on its way... what are you planning to do? Do you have a party you are attending or some jam up good costumes you or your spouse or your kids are wearing? Let the world know...

June Writing Assingment

This is a little late, I know. Sorry about that. So this month’s writing assignment is Vacation. Real original huh? Yeah I know, but school is out, it is hot as the dickens, and it is on my mind. Hopefully it is on yours too. So where are you going? Maybe you can’t take a vacation but you’d like to think about going to somewhere. Maybe you took one three years ago and it was something so special you must share. Whatever you decide, what was your Vacation?

May Writing Assignment

Ok this is hard, the whole coming up with ideas thing, I want to come up with an idea that many people will write about. Last month’s “changes” got a pretty good response. So what about a family member? Family member you say? Yep. So why don’t you write a little something about a family member? You don’t have to give out names or anything like that, but I know there are several family members that I write about from my kids, to my wife, to my siblings, to my parents. They don’t have to be living; they just have to have something interesting about them. It is mother's day coming up... but it could be anyone. So go. Write. Ok?

April Writing Assignment

So this month I thought I would ask about change. From changing your underwear (also known as drawz) to the weather, to a new job, to well just about anything. So what is changing in your world? Surely you change your underwear (drawz) but what else? You could get political, you could get more domestic, you could talk fashion, whatever, it is your blog and so the only person you have to worry about pleasing is you. Just sayin'.

January Writing Assignment

Ok so it is January, Christmas is done, I don't really see a reason to be cold anymore, bring on summer... maybe. What will you do now that the holidays are over? Are you like me and look for summer or perhaps you like the cold. Whatever it is, blog about it!
