I did it! I signed up for 2014's A to Z Blogging Challenge.
I really was dubious about doing the challenge this year, because I'm not entirely sure of my chances. I've felt a little uninspired when it comes to blogging, but now that I have an idea of what I'll be doing for the A to Z, I think it will be a good opportunity to get some blogging energy back.
I really hope!
So, what is the A to Z? Well, most of you probably know, but I will give a brief overview just in case somebody doesn't. The A to Z was started by the awesome Arlee Bird over at Tossing It Out. Arlee's challenge takes place during April each year, when a (large) bunch of bloggers select a theme to post to every day in April except Sundays. It's a great way to meet new people, and in past years I've always learned a lot of new stuff through reading others' posts. Here is a page that has a lot more detailed info!
Check out the list of participants and you'll see there are a lot of them. I'm currently #1086 in the queue, and since I signed up (not very long ago) 53 other people have signed up below me!
But what am I doing this year for the challenge? Well, I've decided to go with a "Books" theme, as I did in 2012 ... and indeed there will be a link between 2012 and what I'm doing this year. But I won't say more than that until closer to April. :)
Are you participating in the A to Z challenge?
Have you ever done so before?
Yay to signing up for the Challenge, it'll be fun!
ReplyDeleteI've made a start on my posts but still need to get my skates on.
Good luck! You'll rock. :)
ReplyDeleteDone the last 2 years but I'm not ready this year, I'm not even back to regular blogging yet. I'll enjoy dipping in and seeing what everyone's up to, though.
I'm thinking I'm in...but haven't taken the official plunge yet! Waiting until the last minute.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're on board!! It's more fun when you have a them.
ReplyDeleteI just signed up too :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should do this. The last year or so, I've mostly done photo posts.
ReplyDeleteAhh, I need to sign up! Thanks for the reminder. I always find that A to Z makes blogging in the following months so much easier for me.
ReplyDeleteBrave girl, Trish. I'm finally heading to publication, so I'm keeping on my roll. A - Z is SO time consuming. If you don't visit heaps of posts you are talking to yourself. I'll be interested in your theme.
ReplyDeleteHi Trisha .. I'm sure we met via the A-Z last year .. so it's good to see you ticking the box again this year ... it's fun - always satisfying to finish .. I have to start writing my posts too - see you there ... Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I'm taking the year off from A-Z but look forward to following your posts.
ReplyDeleteYup, I'm doing it again this year. Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteThis will be year 3 of the A-Z for me. I am wondering about my sanity but I am looking forward to it anyway with a bit of trepidation and a tinge of excitement. Looking forward to doing it with you! ♥
ReplyDeleteGood luck with A to Z! I've done it a few years, but can't commit this time around. Love to hop around and visit to see what people come up with. Have fun!
