The first year I joined the A-Z Challenge, I wrote bits and pieces of Grim Tales from the Ruralhood.
A couple of people said I should put them into a short story collection so I removed
them from my blog and did that. The
second year, I wrote The Waiting Summer,
essays about the summer before my senior year. That was fun, reminiscing. You
can still read those under the tab, at the top, except be aware that I’m still working
on editing them and linking.
Two things I learned about myself writing The Waiting Summer stories. That in the olden days:
~ I was an emotional mess, but aren’t most teens? ~ I wasn’t as fat or ugly as I thought at the time—that is if photos don't actually lie, which is soooo up for debate in my mind.
My A-Z 2014 theme will be—drum roll please: Remembering the Past.

Hi Teresa .. I've loved both your previous series ... and this with accompanying photo and appropriate sentence or two .. sounds an ideal way of completing those posts quite quickly ...
Looking forward to reading this years ... cheers Hilary
also anticipating your posts. Short is usually better.
That works for me! Don't kill yourself trying to come up with long pieces.
I am looking forward to reading your A-Z posts! I loved The Waiting Summer!
I loved your previous posts and have no doubt that these will be just as rewarding.
Sure short and sweet will be neat

Let the challenge begin!
Once again a fun theme. I'm sure you'll have a good time writing and reminiscing and readers will enjoy the journey you prepare for them. Have another great April.
