Because most magazines do not want to publish things you've published yourself already, I don't put them up here. <br /><br />The challenge is a story a day, but if you need to adapt it, there is no harm in doing that! It's more about setting a goal and sticking to it to the best of your ability (something I am still working on!).<br /><br />If it appeals to you, go for it.Elizabeth Twisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03133959633383307056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1729289955062416774.post-1640232054275630562012-04-08T22:29:11.552-04:002012-04-08T22:29:11.552-04:00That is the cutest dog ever!

Is it literally seven days, or is there a day break like the A-Z? Sounds interesting! I will look into it! I am a in a bit of a 'stuck' mode right now so maybe that would help.CLRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01207164054349835246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1729289955062416774.post-83940190972134877862012-04-08T22:10:45.651-04:002012-04-08T22:10:45.651-04:00Hi Joyce!
