Fire / Water Interpretations

Wow,

The challenge last week was Fire / Water, and the group really stepped it up. We went from a low of 3 entries a couple of weeks ago to 9 entries so far this week. Thanks to all who participated, and if you'd like to join in the fun, go ahead. This week we had entries from Shutterbug, Janet, Larry, Carolyn, Vivian, Tash, Maya, ShEiLa, and Diane. Everyone did a great job. Welcome to Shutterbug and ShEiLa, first time posters to our little challenge.

If I missed anyone, I'm sorry. Just let me know and we'll get yours up too.

New Blog Administrator

I'm pleased to announce, ahead of the deadline, that we have a new blog administrator. Larry Mathews of Eeyore's Ramblings has agreed to take on 2 Things Challenges. I'll still be around to assist and to participate. Here's to a new year and new challenges! Please welcome Larry.

Also, please note, Larry will be posting a challenge for this week and next. We hope you'll join in!

Happy New Year, everyone!

Young / Old Interpretations

Hi all,

My name is Larry Mathews, known in the blogosphere as Eeyore of Eeyore's Ramblins. In Janet's last post she asked for volunteers to administer the Two Things Challenge site and keep the challenge going, since she no longer has the time. Apparently I was the only one who forgot to step backwards, so I'm it. She and I have agreed that I will give it a try, and hopefully I can keep it going as a site people find interesting and challenging.

For the Young / Old Challenge we had only 3 entries, one from Dianne, Vivian, and me, but they are indeed interesting, I think.

We will pick up with the teaser that Janet had issued with this challenge: Hand / Pink.

WANTED: A NEW ADMINISTRATOR

Hi loyal Two Things Challenge fans!

First off, let me apologize for dropping the ball here at 2TC. I've loved administering this blog and being a part of what was a weekly creative challenge. This blog was started by Debi Cates's daughter. She then passed it to Debi and Debi passed it to me.

Due to a number of circumstances, I'm no longer able to manage 2TC on a weekly basis, so I'm looking for someone to take over this fabulous site that allows us to stretch our imaginations and creativity in our respective media.

If you'd like to become the administrator of 2TC, email me. I'm taking all applications. All I need to know is your name, your blog address, where you're located geographically (you don't have to specifiy. You can give a general region or state/country, if you'd like), and why you like 2TC. I'll add your name to a hat and draw a new administrator.

The deadline for applications is January 3, 2010.

Sincerely,

Janet Kincaid
D.C. Confidential
