It occurs to me that I should probably make this announcement before the event actually starts. So, after watching my writer/author friend Erin do this twice, I’m giving the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge 2012 a shot!
Why? Well, I like the idea of scheduled posts. Some people have a topic for each day of the week, rather like a radio show that has certain regular elements with their features tossed in as the meat of the show. So Thursdays are days to blog about what you’re thankful for (Thankful Thursdays), Tuesdays you post about your twins (Twofer Tuesdays), Sundays are for posting about what’s restful in your life…things like that.
Needless to say, you may have notices that I have no such schedule here. Not that I haven’t thought about it. Posting bi-daily is enough for me now, and you may notice that occasionally I am a little late. Oops.
But then, the A to Z Challenge…a ready-made schedule that bunches of other folks are also participating in. I’ll be part of a group! You can hop from me to the next guy in line by clicking that little box over there to the right. There’s interesting new things to read from interesting new people…
I’m looking forward to it.
There’s just one thing I’m not ready for, however, and that is that my A to Z Challenge has not yet got a theme. My Night of Writing Dangerously Table Buddy Chris has a theme. My friend Erin, previously mentioned, did her last A to Z Challenge on women science fiction and fantasy authors.
I don’t believe having a theme is a requirement, however it would make things easier, in theory, to come up with posts if I had a theme. Then I wouldn’t be rambling all over, daily posts with nothing in common…we just can’t have that.
If you have any ideas for me and my theme, let me know! Otherwise, I’ll see you on April 1st with a very big letter A surprise!
