A to Z Challenge - Going for it!


http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/
Hi Everyone!

Just a quick one to let you all know that I've decided to take part in the A-Z Challenge in April.  If you haven't already signed up, why not give it a try and keep me (and the hundreds of others taking part) company?

I was worried that it would take more time than I have to spare, but then realised that it's going to be a good exercise in writing regardless of whether inspiration has struck, so that's got to be useful! 

You can find out more about the challenge by clicking the link above (I don't think it will work if you click the picture but you're welcome to try it.  I'm not that technically brilliant!) Or you could click here!

Thanks to the advice of my technical adviser Annalisa Crawford, you should find the list of everyone taking part below!

Right - I'm off to look in the dictionary under A for a little inspiration.  I'm really looking forward to seeing what other people write!  And, of course, if anyone has any advice to offer this little challenge newbie, do feel free!

Yay! Welcome aboard Linda. Technical help any time you want, although you might find I've reached my limit of usefulness :-)

As a bit of advice, you may want to consider removing your word verification before April - it may put off casual visitors from leaving comments.

Thanks, Annalisa! I've now removed the word verification... I hope!

I'll check...

Annalisa Crawford said...

Yes, you have :-)

Picking a theme is helpful. Last year, Nicki Elson did '80s TV shows. I didn't participate because I didn't learn about the Challenge until it was nearly over but I looked forward to Nick's posts once I found out about it.

Congratulations on joining the madhouse - and thank you so much for removing word verification ;-)

Thanks for the list. I've written a few letters ahead but need to get busy again. My theme is going to be 'Louisiana'.

I've left you an award on my blog.

Welcome aboard! It'll be fun, that's for sure.

My favorite crazy time of the blogging world! Changed my life around last year and I wouldn't miss it for the world this year. My advice is to choose something that interests you to write about and have fun! Also do not make your posts to long, remember there is much reading and many blogs to get through. See you in the alphabet!

I did my first A-Z last year... and had blast! Welcome to the madness & good luck with the challenge!

I will totally follow people doing this! I wish there was something like that, but in French!

Do you have a theme?

That is so exciting, good luck!
