Dear Five Minute Friday People,
As you know, Kate won't be hosting FMF through November and December.
I offered to stand in, and she accepted. I can't begin to describe how honoured I am.
You won't be getting her emails announcing posts, but I will let you know on X (@BudekSchmeisser) and Facebook (Andrew Budek).
I don't spam these platforms. Just the blog, my Substack site, and an occasional uplifting quote.
The posts will go live on Thursday nights at 8pm Mountain Time.
I'll do things a little differently, since I'm not nearly the writer Kate is. I already have a list of words, and I'll give myself five minutes to find a good quote that fits the prompt.
And none of my poetry!
The dates will be:
November 7
November 14
November 21
November 28
December 5
December 12
December 19
December 26
January 2
I really hope you'll join me.
So does Sylvia. She's the brains behind all this.
Thank you, Andrew! I look forward to seeing how you will choose quotes for each week. But if you don't do any poetry, I will miss it!
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Andrew! You are doing the writing community of FMF (and Kate) a great service. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stepping in, Andrew.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing your quotes.
How wonderful that you will host this. I hope I can still work out how to join in and read everybody's stuff. I just read this in the Message and want to share it -
ReplyDeleteMatthew 28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
