I came across this challenge a couple of weeks ago and thought it was a great idea and marked it as a “to-do” then promptly did nothing. This challenge was designed by Amy Johnson Crow and shared on her blog. The idea is that she emails everybody in the challenge with a topic for the week and you pick an ancestor to write about. I’ve decided I am going to do this even though I am starting two months into the challenge – I’ll just have to write twice as much for a while.
