I’m now wondering if it’s the short link that caused the issue with the embedding not working. Or perhaps we just can’t embed links when we start a forum thread. Here’s a test to see where the problem is….

Nope! It seems to be the short link that’s the problem….

I had promised @bestwriter that I would post a link about writing strong titles, and I thought perhaps it would be good to have it in its own thread so we can all add our two cents about composing titles.
So here is the article. Feel free to share your insights too!
@scheng1 I have now created the group you spoke about.…[Read more]

@morgoodie you only need to put it on its own line, so hitting enter once is sufficient. If you want to have a bit of extra whitespace around it, go for 2-3 times both before and after you paste in the link. But yes, it’s as simple as that! I wish we’d know about it before. I will definitely use this method in future, and I’m curious as to whether…[Read more]

Yet another post submitted. I am so close! I hope it publishes soon…

@scheng If I really had a million dollars I would likely keep a townhouse or apartment in the city – possibly several in different world cities so I could partake of the culture and the overnight pizza delivery!

@scheng1 I need to give myself time to get caught up too! I’m thinking I’ll aim for about one challenge per week over the summer. I have a couple of ideas in mind already…
I think we could set up the group for writing challenges, but we’d have to ask @support to migrate the earlier discussion threads to that forum.

We don’t mark Memorial Day in Canada, but since I’ve learned about the history of this holiday I’ve often thought we should at least adapt some of its customs for use around Remembrance Day in the fall.
