This week’s assignment from the League: Back to School!

back to school

The last couple of topics have been a blast but now it’s time to buckle down and get serious…

—

Summer’s over, it’s time to go back to school! (Interpret it as you will.)

—

Once you put up a post on your site add a comment below with the URL. Next Monday, I will put up a post here on Cool & Collected with a list of all the contributing blogs. Once that list is posted, if you haven’t already done so, try to incorporate at least three of your fellow League members’ links (but more would be great!) into the article you wrote on your site.

By cross-posting like this, we will help each other out by sending new readers to each other’s sites. Have fun!

 

(Wondering what the heck this is all about? We’re recruiting for this loose-knit, rag tag crew! Here are the details for joining The League.)

    Please excuse Iok for not taking part in this week’s League assignment but he was in bed all week with a ‘flu bug.
