THOUGHTS OF SUMMER
June 7, 2011
For some inexplicable reason, summer is a reflective time for me... thoughts and possibilities are endless and plentiful! I found a wonderful and challenging online magazine that fits right into my frame of mind. SMITH MAGAZINE is a U.S. based online magazine devoted to storytelling in all its forms and it welcomes contributions from all its readers. Since 2008, it's been quite well known for its series of Six-Word Memoirs Projects. A memoir is any story that encapsulates your life, what you remember, what's important to you. The six-word form is wonderful because it helps you distill what's really important. Some of these projects include six-word memoirs on love and heartbreak, memoirs for teens, on the Green Life, on America...there are so many now that you're sure to find several in which to participate. I'm going to include one in each of my future postings. Here's the first...

On to the BOATS, STARS and SWEET TIME portion of this posting...responses to art challenges. I do love doing these bits and pieces of art as they charge my imagination.
Have a wonderful, productive week and I hope to see you for my next posting...next week.
