New Beginnings
Saturday 5 September 2020
“One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”
Ok, we are not landing on the moon, but this is a big step for us. The relaunch of the newsletter. 14 weeks of producing my own Share The Love news has now developed into this.
Our editors have been swamped, but not all by pieces from you guys. Some have had lots to do with full-time jobs, others have been dealing with the pressures of home and some are doing fantastic work with organisations such as FEMA. Even so, we are still going.
Don’t forget to visit our publication and check out the new pieces coming out.

The Impromptu Prompt
We have had a huge amount of responses to this challenge and are still getting them in. So, to make it fair as we haven’t finished reading them yet, we will extend the challenge for another week.

Curated on STL
Every two weeks we go through the pieces on STL and check to see which ones have been curated. All of these can be found here.

Our Editors
As we get bigger and better we need our editors. They ensure they your pieces read well, conform to our submission guidelines and conform to curation guidelines.
Here are some short bio’s about a few of our editors.

Her interests include Bangladeshi heritage, baking, creative writing, personal development, and public speaking. When she’s not planning lessons, editing for Share The Love, or whipping up a meal; you’ll find her taking snapshots of her son’s crafts, reading a self-help book, or solving Sudoku.

Sharing The Love
As our name suggests, we enjoy sharing the love of your work. We have employed a system that automatically shares all work on Facebook and Twitter and is now looking to bring that into Slack. Hopefully, soon we can announce a new slack channel to share, discuss and improve your work and our services.
