Following the great response to the "later" closing date to the last edition of #bow, we have decided to stick with Tuesdays.
But first -
We have a few big thank yous:
First, to last week's winner: Silver Thumb, who sent her winnings back to the community, so we've added those 10 Hive to the prize pool. Speaking of, thank you also to Silver Beet who has pledged an additional 50HP for the prize pot when it starts running low.
Secondly, and for new delegations to the community account (@hive-106306) that have come from Silver Panda and Silver Beet. This means that as our account grows, so does our capacity to support posts from active members of our community.
Some housekeeping
- Please follow our community curation trail - another way to support the community and its members. You can sign up here. Again, thanks to Silver Thumb for prompting us to do this and for following up the glitch.
- Join us for a coffee and a chat in our Discord server which is open to subscribed members only. Again, a special thank you to @macchiata for all her help with this as we navigate our way through more new things. It's not true that you can't teach old dogs new tricks - I'm still learning!
🌻A reminder🌻
For those of you who are regular contributors to the Silver Bloggers Community #bow initiative, and newcomers, too, a reminder that:
The winners' announcement is separate from the new theme. If you missed the winning post, you'll find it here.
to keep things fair: the same person (account) may not win twice in succession.
In summary, last edition's winner may enter, but the contribution, like those of the judges' panel, will not be eligible for a prize .
Theme for the Week closing on Tuesday 19 October 2021
This time, and after an edition (and a patch for so many) that had much pain and loss, this week's theme is a happy one -
My happiest memory
Go through those old photographs and scrap books and take us back to that happy time.
