Starting Friday January 22, 2010

We are going to start a new meme this Friday for all the aspiring writers out there. Grandma and I (Calico Crazy) have decided to start this new meme for those of us who write without another outlet. Bring your stories, novels, poems, possibly even a song or two and share them with us here each weekend.

We will put up a linky each Friday afternoon and leave it open for submissions through Sunday evening. Our only requests are that you have a post that has your own original writing in it and that your link be to the post itself and not your entire blog.

If you are interested in seeing some writing that's already been posted check out the first installment of Grandma's Convictions.
