Slice of Life Challenge | Day 31


Since I was young, I've loved saving quotes. I kept them in notebooks, but years ago, I started sharing them on a blog called Little House on the Ridge.

I have a quote about comments from Ruth Ayres.
"It matters when people comment on our writing and it makes us want to write more. Our students need others to react with emotion to their writing."
Comments matter.

The words we share with others matter.

Our reactions to stories matter.

 Thank you so much for being here during the Slice of Life Challenge.

Your words have mattered to me.

    Audience matters -- whether it is ourselves or the world, or some small sliver of readers. Thanks for reminding us.

    Yes! It does matter. It gives us that proverbial Spring in our step to keep going.
