Two years ago today, Ditalini Press was created.
Ditalini Press is a blog consisting of a group of creative writers who post at regular intervals. We are given a writing topic at the beginning of the month and are encouraged to submit our works by the end of the month.
Ditalini Press gave me the inspiration I needed to start Latent Chestnut, and I am happy to recognize the second anniversary of the first post. The number of Ditalini Press contributors has grown significantly over the past couple years; we started with five, and now have twenty-two contributors.
I was more nervous than excited when the first topic was given on July 14, 2008 because I had not written anything creative for years. But now, I eagerly anticipate each new topic and look forward to the challenge it presents. It is a rewarding experience for me, and keeps my creative juices flowing. As always, Ditalini Press is open to anyone, and we are always looking for more writers to join the fun!
