Well, it's that time of year again! It's theA to Z Challenge signup time.
And, yes, I've signed up. :)
For those who don't know what A to Z is, but might be interested, it's a challenge for bloggers. During the month of April, post every day (except Sundays) on a theme of your choice, but each post must be inspired, in order, by the letters of the alphabet. The idea is to post and to visit other blogs to chat with other bloggers.
So, why, you wonder, is the sign up in January, when it all happens in April? Well, there's a lot of prep work that goes into 26 blog posts in 30 days. I'm a glutton for punishment, I had two blogs in the challenge last year, and this year, I have three: this one, Sophie's Thoughts & Fumbles; Fantasy Boys XXX, Wittegen Press' erotica blog; the Wittegen Press blog itself is also joining in this year. My twin, Tasha, and I are sharing the work at FB3X and Wittegen Press, so it's only the equivalent of two sets of blog posts I have to prepare, but I'm rolling up my sleeves and starting now, because, odds are I won't finish all the posts before April even with two months to prepare.
So, come on, if you're a blogger and you fancy something that is social, a blogging marathon and a chance to network with others, getting a few more followers in the process, go sign up and take the challenge!
I've signed up and I've got my theme and everything. I've even written a couple posts. Should be lots of fun! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's being well-prepared :) I have my themes sorted too, just have to get round to writing those posts!
DeleteIt should be great fun, it was last year. I'm looking forward to it. Glad to see some favourites from last year like you signing up too.
I signed up, but I have no clue what I'm doing this year! :)
ReplyDeleteIt took me a while to decide, but then I've been mulling it all over since the beginning of Jan :) Good luck with finding a theme.
DeleteHi Sophie, looks like you're on a roll getting all set up for the A to Z, with three blogs no less! Good thing you and your sister will be sharing the load. :) :)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading your posts for the upcoming A to Z.
Cheers, Jenny

Hi there :) Sharing the posts does help, but it's also nice to have one blog where it's just me too. I'm looking forward to this year, I made some good friends last year :) Thanks.
DeleteI'm glad they give us TONS of heads up for the challenge. There is a LOT to prepare. I just signed up for the theme reveal on the 23rd. I write all my blogs a month ahead of time, so I have a lot of work coming up!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad too! I just signed up for the theme reveal as well. It helped me get all my ducks in a row last year and sort out my posts, even if I hadn't finished writing all of them by the time the challenge started ;P. Good luck this year!
