RootsTech 2018 announced its new Photo + Story Competition, which looks like it will be a lot of fun to view  along besides offering the opportunity to win some neat prizes.

I had started to submit an entry back on the first day it was announced. However, I hit a little stumbling block – a shareable URL had to be included and I had no clue how to accomplish that.

If you’re like me, you might also have no idea how to do it, but Amie Bowser Tennant, The Genealogy Reporter, came to the rescue. She has created a short YouTube video which gives clear, easy to follow directions for creating the URL in Google Drive.

My entry took me all of five minutes after I decided on the photo.

You don’t have to attend RootsTech to enter the contest so get busy and choose the picture and story you’d like to submit and don’t worry about creating that pesky shareable URL. Amie took care of that for us. Thanks, Amie.
