Inspirational and free, with a possibility of prizes! Join me by taking part in Storystorm. All you have to do is register (through the first week of January) in comments at taralazar.com Then come up with one new story idea for 30 of the days in January. Visit the blog each day, if you wish, for inspiration from authors and illustrators and also to earn chances at winning prizes. That’s it! You don’t even have to share your list of ideas. Those are for you to keep and get started on an awesome new year of writing! ~Becky

The really unique part about Storystorm is that you keep your list of ideas to yourself and work on writing them during the year. So, you might find out more about some of them…eventually:)

Hi Becky – I am familiar with StoryStorm, in fact, I won a critique when it was the earlier version of PiBoIdMo! However, I’m particularly writing as I signed up to follow you after your blog post – River to Skate Away On – and have never once been notified of any of your subsequent posts. Have you had this happen before? Does it say at your end that I’m following you? At my end, it does. Thanks,
Jeanne

Hi Jeanne, I see where it says that I’m following you, but I’m not aware of where to look to see if someone is following me! Any info about that is appreciated:)

I did find the problem with me following you … WP signed me up but never – at that time – gave me a link to options of how I wanted notifications, when, etc. I have that resolved, so we should be good going forward. Where you can see who is following you … hmmmm. OK, I took a look around, but can’t find it at the moment. It’s in there somewhere – who’s following you, when they joined, etc. I’ll take a longer look at some point and if I can find it, I’ll let you know!

Good, and I just now found where that info about my followers can be found. I learned something new today! Thanks:)

Sorry to write again – I went in and changed my settings. Although my site activated my following you, it didn’t turn on a notification. Maybe that was it … ?
