From Laurie comes this invitation: The 35th edition of the Tar Heel Tavern will be posted at slowlysheturned.blogspot.com on Sunday, Oct. 23 around 12 noon. The deadline for submissions is 9 a.m. Sunday morning, to accommodate you night-owl writers. The theme this time will be “An Oldie But a Goodie.” You can approach this one in many ways – for example you can write about a treasured possession, memory, relationship, past administration, book, song, movie…use your imagination. OR you can submit a post older than one week. The only restriction is that it must not have been included in a past Tar Heel Tavern. OR you can do both in one post… OR you can do neither and just send me whatcha got. Do NOT click reply to this email or I will not receive your submission. Send your permalink to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address). I will confirm receipt of each submission. Try to send it sooner than later if possible so I can get started on Saturday. I like to read all of your submissions carefully and a little of your blogs so I can get a good sense of who you are. Encourage new N.C. bloggers to participate, and beg old bloggers to host!
