Week One Blogger Idol Play-at-Home

Are annual family pics a tradition for you?

As the contest progresses, we are going to give all of you a chance to play along at home, and strengthen your writing skills before auditions next year.

Each Monday, we will give you the same assignment that the contestants are doing, and then you can come back here and link your post so that others can read it. There is no fee for participating in this link-up. The only thing you are required to do, is check out at least TWO other links and go give them some constructive critique on their post. The Blogger Idol staff and judges will occasionally be checking out the links as well, and stopping by to offer some words of advice.

This week, the Top 13 face a double elimination as they write about family tradition. They have to write about a tradition that they participate in with their family, extended family, or friends, but at the same time, really let their new fans know who they are, since it's their first post. There are no word limitations, but you have to include at least one image in your post.

When you are all done, use the widget below to submit the link to your post! And don't forget to go and leave some constructive critique on TWO other blogs!
