Step 1. Tag and add a Title to your Posterous post ((tag: Wk5, Hero Story))!

You can add a Title and tags to your hero/person you admire post by including these in the Subject Line of your email. Your Title should be Your Name's Hero story. To add tags through email, add tags in the subject of your email using the syntax ((tag: Wk5, HeroStory)). For more information on how this looks, please click here
