[Update- we're still looking for more submissions! If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at colette@tomopop.com!]

Destructoid has been doing the Monthly Musing thing for a while now: on the first of the month, we come up with a topic, and we challenge both editors and community members alike to write a feature based on that theme. Our favorite features get promoted to the home page, where they can be more widely read and commented upon. Sounds like it could be fun, right?

This month, Tomopop joins the tradition by kicking off our very first Monthly Musing topic, "Your First Time". What was the first time you remember really loving a toy? Was it a childhood memory, or did the infectious nature of collecting not really stick with you until you were an adult and bought something with your own money? Whatever your story is, hit up the cblogs and post your feature there (make sure your title is "My First Time: (topic here)"). You can do this through the end of the month. If you have any questions about how it all works, feel free to email me at colette@tomopop.com.

Looking forward to reading your stories and sharing in your memories!
