Yep, you read that right. I gave in and signed up for the A-Z challenge.
If you’ve not yet signed up, there’s still time. Go here to check it out and do so. There are over 1300 entries to the challenge. Help the number climb!
The goal is, with the exception of the first Sunday in April (1st of April), to post a blog every single day throughout the month using the alphabet as a topic guide.
It helps if you have a theme.
My theme is going to be: Things that inspire me, influence me and enable me to write. Maybe sharing them with others will let some of my friends find inspiration where they haven’t before.
My one problem with the challenge is that I have no idea how you’re supposed to get around to everyone’s blogs and cheer them on. I don’t have the time to visit 100 blogs a day, but I’m definitely going to put in a stark effort to see everyone’s at least once! I think that’s a noble effort, yes?
In other writing news – I’m waiting in anticipation for an email on Friday. I think it’s an email, it might not be. Let’s just say my fingernails are not surviving as well as I’d hoped – but I anticipate the left hand coming out unscathed, while the right hand nails pretty much get demolished… lol
*hugs* to all of my #writemotivation people
I’ll be putting up the May round of Goal Check 2012 around the 15th of April. So look for it if you’d like to sign up again.
What about you? Are you taking part in the A-Z challenge? If so, what’s your theme? If not, why not?
Hope you don’t mind me spamming your feed for a month!
I am definitely participating in the A to Z blogging challenge. I like your theme. Mine is a daily window into the interactions of one of heaven’s Cleansers and hell’s Harvestors. Got a few of them scheduled. Need to get some more done though.
Good luck and loads of fun with the challenge 🙂
Wow! Your A-Z sounds awesome 😀 I think my theme is a biiiiit lame by comparison haha <3 Can't wait to read yours!
I am, duh. I’m doing mine freestyle, though most are either writing related, or playing with words anyway. Some of them are turning into little vignettes. I find those fun.
😀 You’re mainly responsible for me taking part. I blame you 😛
I am so in on this. I know I signed up.. I am on this list somewhere! I really have no theme.. I am doing random words that can serve as motivational.. I have so much other writing going on.. this was what I could come up with!
And best of luck to you on whatever it is you are waiting for!! 🙂
Awesome! I’m so happy you signed up 😀 And I think it’s a great theme 😀
Yay K.T.– glad that you gave in. Don’t stress about the visiting of the other blogs on the list. Set a goal for 5 a day–you probably won’t be able to stop there. You’ll do great.

Thank you so much 😀 I read so many blogs per day as it is, but need to get better at commenting. So, I’m hoping this will help me get into the habit of commenting on at least 5 blogs per day 😀
I signed up for it, but I’m going to back out. You ask why? I am already overwhelmed with all the things I need to get done each done, I just can’t add one more. My wife and I came up with a list, but I have not had time to get them done early, so decided to forego this year. I’m looking forward to reading many of the works of those of you participating. Have fun.
Yeah, I fully understand that. I was a bit worried about it myself. Looking for media to insert into my posts is what takes me the most time… lol. There’s always next year. Sometimes being practical is better 😀
I don’t think I could do this at all. Besides, even if I signed up today, I’d be so far behind! 🙂 There is no way, with all that is going on in my life, that I would be able to blog A-Z, it just sounds too overwhelming. Besides, I want to continue WIP#1 and WIP#2. I don’t need the added distractions LOL
But I will happily read yours!
Can’t wait to hear from you Friday! 😀
And I’ll be back for May’s #WriteMotivation! You know I will!
It wouldn’t really be far behind considering April hasn’t even started yet 😛 But you would have to do a daily post and that could get a bit hectic if you don’t have at least a week’s worth prescheduled.
*hugs* You can come read mine 😛
Sounds like a great theme girl! I’m signed up as well and just figured out my theme will be Places Where Couple Can Escape To – or something like that anyway. DEFINITELY signing up for the May challenge and looking forward to it! Fingers crossed on that Friday email!
Yay! I’m so glad you signed up. This will be a lot of fun 😀
I haven’t heard of the A-Z challenge before, so I’m going to be interested to watch you work your way through it! Posting daily would be too much for me, so I’ll just cheer you on 🙂
Thank you 😀 I hope I make it interesting enough. 😀
Thanks so much for participating in the A to Z challenge. We are so glad to have you!
