All Entries: What I Learned from People

Howdy, Bubba! Hey, if you're new around these parts, I just want to say how much I appreciate you dropping by! Oh, and you may want to subscribe to my feed. Thanks, and a tip o' the hat to ya!

WILFYou know, every month I give a party, and every month it’s the same routine. As I push the PUBLISH button on yet another group writing project, I can’t help but wonder, Will anybody show up?

I know; I’m weak. But every month, you guys overwhelm me with your participation, and prove once again just how interesting the Internet can really be. Way to go, y’all!

Once again, I am completely amazed by the quality of the entries y’all have shared! Yep, it’s another great turnout for this month’s group writing project: What I Learned From… People. A total of [updated!] 20 entries in all!

Below you’ll find the entire list; do yourself a favor and check them all out. Heck, start a conversation, why don’cha! (Almost) every one finishes the phrase:

_______________________

So, what’s the subject going to be, you ask?

Well… ordinarily, I don’t announce the next month’s topic ahead of time. After all, that would be telling! But in this case, I’ll answer you with a challenge. The fact is, next month’s topic has already been announced somewhere right here in the Zone.

See if you can find it!

You know, it would just be absolutely finer than a frogs hair if you would subscribe to my RSS feed!

    Thanks again for running this and keeping us all out of mischief.

    Joanna

    PS Each time I read the title for Jean’s entry I think it says “The BOB in the black sweater”!

    @Brad - Yes, I’m feeling particularly good-looking today! Oh! Er, you were talking about the list of entries, right? :-\

    @Joanna - Always willing to do my part to keep the streets of Edinburgh safe! And Jean’s entry gave me a double-take, too. How did she know I have a black sweater?

    @Mother Earth - It always thrills me when new faces join the mix!

    I had so much fun participating this month, and I will most definitely join in again next week. Unfortunately I’m having internet probs, so I don’t have enough online time to check out everyone’s posts, but rest assured that when I receive my new router I’ll be over to read all the entries. Thanks for running such a fun group project!
