MamaBlogga Group Writing Project, June 2007
This writing project has ended. Please view the full list of wonderful entries at the June GWP Finale, and subscribe to MamaBlogga to find out about the next group writing project!
Last month’s Group Writing Project was such a success, I decided to do it again. So, as promised, this week is the second MamaBlogga Group Writing Project!
The theme for the June Group Writing Project is “Three things I want my kids to . . .” You can finish that infinitive with whatever verb you like (do, say, be, wear, have, get away with), and add any qualifiers you like (today, this summer, before they drive me crazy).
Your post can take any form as long as it reflects this theme—this includes anything from serious to sarcastic, addressed to your children, your future children, your neighbors’ kids, your pets, etc.
You can participate with a blog post, a podcast, a video, a page on your website, etc., etc. If you don’t have a website, contact me and I’ll be happy to publish your entry here on MamaBlogga.
Only NEW posts (i.e., posts have not been published prior to 24 June 2007) are eligible. Posts must be submitted through the submission form before Sunday, 1 July 2007.
Why participate?
There are lots of reasons to participate! All entries that meet the guidelines will be listed and linked to here on MamaBlogga. This an opportunity for you to discover new blogs (and for others to discover yours!). Last week, I came up with thirteen good reasons to participate.
And, of course, there is one more incentive: one lucky post author, drawn at random, will receive a $30 gift certificate to Amazon.com.
Finally, we’d appreciate it if you linked to this post or to the guidelines/submission form on your entry post so that others can learn about the project and participate.
Now get writing!

I read about this on Michelle (Scribbit’s) blog and loved the idea. It’s actually a topic I think of a lot. Thanks for the chance to participate.

Continuing to learn and not being afraid to go back to education or retrain will be a valuable skill when Erin is older, with an everchanging workforce, flexibility and a plethora of skills are surely high on any employer’s wish list. Of course, I will also be showing Erin that you do not need to work for someonelse and it is equally viable to start your own business or income streams.
