Group Writing Project: It’s Funny NOW, But Then …

August 21, 2007 by Lillie 

It’s been a week since I announced the group writing project: It’s Funny NOW, But Then …

The response hasn’t exactly been overwhelming. I sure don’t want to have to write about the time I gave a blog party and nobody came. :-)

Surely all of you have had experiences that were embarrassing, even seemingly tragic, at the time but are now funny. Perhaps your first teenage kiss when you got your braces locked together. Or a comedy of errors that seemed like it would never end. Or that embarrassing – and very public – mistake you made at work. You were sure you’d never try another kiss or you feared you would lose your job. But thousands of kisses or a promotion on the job later, you can remember those moments with laughter.

You have until midnight on Tuesday, September 4th to share your experience that’s funny NOW. We all need a good laugh.

  1. Oh Lillie. I’m so sorry! I’ve been so busy and preoccupied with the Shared Answers group writing project, that I’ve missed reading about this project… just catching up on posts now.

    As Laura said, there are a lot of GWP’s on at the moment. This is a great concept, though.

    Hmmm…I’m not too sure what I can write about… will give it some thought.

  2. It might be worth including a link to the original project from this post, as I had some trouble locating it. :)

    Yvonne, thanks for letting me know about the link. That’s something else that happened with the theme change – I had a link there and didn’t realize it didn’t come through when I posted.

    Hope you can come up with a submission. There are a lot of great writing projects going on now.
