@chrisbe_ you should join the #30dayswingchallenge 🙂
That was Katie Sewell's tweet after we got connected on Twitter. I haven't heard about the «30 Day Lindy Hop Challenge» before, so I checked it out:
The idea behind the challenge is to write every day about a topic related to Lindy Hop for the next 30 days.
Well, I have decided to join the challenge, but I will do a little twist. I won't write every day but every Friday from now on for the next 30 weeks! How about that?
Here are the topics:
