100 Words – Magical and Delicious
2010
Let me say that I cannot thank Lou nearly enough for being Gaurdian ad Litem to the 100 Word Challenge all that long while I was away. Seriously, you don’t even know how supportive he’s been. Some day I’ll get to give him a big ole’ hug in person. I’d promise to send him a gift by post, but I’m allergic to the Post Office – apparently.
Anyway, the new digs are looking good, don’t you think? Yes, the header is bugging the hell out of me (I’m not a perfectionist – shut up!) and I still don’t know how I’m ever going to resolve finding a way to post without an image. Those details aside – even if they DO keep me up at night – it’s time to bring the 100 Word Challenge back home. As of Monday, August 16th, the 100 Word Challenge will be back under way here at Velvet Verbosity.
AND — are you ready for this? I’ve created a…wait for it…wait for it…
I’ve created a FACEBOOK page for 100 Words! I know, right? Crazy. But in my line of work I already manage a couple other Facebook pages, and it’s a lot easier for me to stay on top of that then it can sometimes be to manage a blog. AND, I’m really excited about the possibility of opening the challenge up to non-bloggers. I know it’s shocking, but not everyone has a blog (here, breathe into this bag).
I hope you’ll help the cause by clicking the old “Like” button and passing it on to your writery friends.
With love,
VV

Hey, welcome back! Facebook has eaten my blog, so I’m glad to see you over there, too.

I,rodius – I think Facebook has eaten a lot of brains. I think Facebook might be a zombie.
(thanks for the open-armed welcome back!)
Lceel, seriously dude.
*joins Tara in a standing O*
And you can add me to the crowd jumping up and down, waving their arms in the air, and shouting “Hooray for Lou! Hooray for Lou!”
Welcome back, VV! I’ve missed seeing you around. And while Lou did a fantastic job holding dowm the fort, I’m also glad for him that you are back. He is way too much of a gentleman to ever choose his own entry in the 100-Word Challenge as the favorite, and there were many times he so deserved to be chosen.

I agree, Lou did an awesome job. What a thorough and supportive guy! Thank you Lou, for your hard work. You’ve been great.
Welcome back VV, I’m glad you’re getting everything in order but what that means for me is finally figuring out facebook. Ugh!
See you Monday
And the standing ‘O’ for Lou gets bigger.
Jennifer, don’t worry about FB too much. Some different stuff will be happening over there for sure, but at the same time I created that page for different reasons. This way if someone has a blog they can participate here, but if they don’t they can participate there. Of course folks can do both, but it was a matter of opening a new channel for different opportunities.
I posted elsewhere on Velvet Verbosity, but I’m doing it again. Lou has been an incredible gatekeeper of the 100 Word Challenge. I got my feet wet under his watch and appreciate his encouragement. Thank you Lou!
I’m on FB, but not a huge fan. Perhaps participating in the 100 word challenge on FB will change my mind. Welcome back Velvet, and nice to meet you.
