May Chronicles Challenge - Day #10
Use #10DaysofChronicles each time you publish to social
Final Day of the 10 Days of Chronicles Challenge!
Whew! You made it! Let’s celebrate writing for ten days in a row. Jump over to the community and share.
Today's Prompt
Uncover a unique talent or skill passed down through your family
‘Uncover’ is the key word here because this likely isn’t in any genealogical record!
Share about a talent or skill such as physical ability, sports aptitude, musical or artistic talent, or just a behavior shared with your ancestors.
Steps to Craft your Chronicle
Step 1: Read the prompt and pull out your notes and records on one ancestral family.
Step 2: Select an image (document, photo, map, postcard, artwork, or drawing) and write 50-150 words capturing that moment in time.
Step 3: Ta-da you have a Chronicle! Publish your Chronicle on your social media or your blog to share with family.
P.S. Today's prompt is to inspire you. If it doesn't work for you, write about anything on your ancestors.

This exercise focused my mind on a scaled-down and specific topic. Success! The process works: make notes, find an image and write. I realize I wrote 400 words instead of 150, but this took a big chunk of my day. I'm not sure I can create a post everyday for 10 days. I will give it a go. Here it is on my public Facebook page:
