Hello everyone,
This week, the blog has a decidedly Christmas theme, Send us a picture of your decorated house, either inside or outside and a message for your family and friends and I will put it on the home page. There are some there already. Take a look. Also, if you send a picture of your ugly or cute Christmas sweater or t-shirt, you could win a $25 gift card.
You will find details of this and the first semi-annual writing competition, on the News and Current Events page. The writing competition is open now and closes mid-January, with multiple cash prizes.

Hi there;
Imagine you may have next week’s stories selected, but I have just completed a memoir story that I am sending along. It’s just under 900 words.
I just sent it to my Christopher with a couple of pictures – the first family picture in the recovery room, and a picture of his birthday parties in 1985 and 1986.
I loved your story about “Noel and Sherlock”!
Angie

I always have room for a story, but nothing before the 27th. How about then? Bren

What a sweet, heart-warming story by Isolde Ryan. Really tugged at the heart-strings. Thanks for sharing the beauty of Christmas!

Yes, it is and to think that it’s a true story. It actually happened, just as she wrote it.
