WRITING — TRAVEL

Globetrotters Weekly News — July 13

Ongoing story prompts, new writers and… expanding the July monthly challenge?

Hello Globetrotters!

Hope everyone is having a great week so far. 🥳💃🕺🎈🎇

We are now officially more than 1,000 followers strong here at Globetrotters… talk about something to celebrate! A solid 1,060 as of this moment. In a week’s time we’ve attracted over 100 new followers!

Our little pub is growing up… 🙂😭 happy/sad 🙂😭 …and the pace just keeps increasing as well.

Story Recaps & Archives

Check out Adrienne Beaumont’s latest story recap to catch up on stories from the previous week.

So glad she takes the time to put these together for us! ❤️

Archives of story recaps and these weekly news updates can be found under the Writer Submissions tab.

July Monthly Challenge

So, our July Monthly Challenge so far hasn’t seemed to strike quite the same chord as our June water challenge. Not sure why… any celebration will do really, including birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, holidays… as long as there’s some kind of travel/celebration theme thrown in somewhere.

Heck, bringing a wine bottle to the beach could even work at this point! Feel free to get creative with it!

Crystal A. Walker provided our excellent guidelines this month:

Luckily, we did finally start getting some stories in this week and they have been fabulous! Check them out and get inspired:
