Here is your chance to help write the third chapter of “Your Story,” an ongoing serial story written by you, the readers.

We provided the first chapter on Nov. 1, and the second chapter appears today on Page E1. It was written by Dale Worcester of Central City.

The final chapter will be published on Christmas Day.

“Your Story” will contain five chapters, which must have a holiday theme or time frame and be set in Greater Johnstown. To submit an entry, pick up the story thread where it ends today and take the story wherever you like.

Submit your entry for the third chapter, up to 750 words, by noon Thursday.

Entries can be e-mailed to Renée Carthew, Features Editor, at rcarthew@tribdem.com; sent by fax to 539-1409; or mailed to The Tribune-Democrat, 425 Locust St., P.O. Box 340, Johnstown, Pa. 15907.

The winning third chapter will be published on Nov. 29, and a short story about the author will appear.

At that time, new entries can be submitted for the fourth chapter to continue the story.

The ongoing story appears on The Tribune-Democrat’s Web site – www.tribdem.com.
