Fun is what A to Z is about. If you aren't having it then you might be doing something wrong. I can relate to some stress, but only in a minor sense. Come on folks! This Challenge is writing, reading, writing, and reading some more. It's up to you to decide how much work you put into it. Just don't decide that it ain't fun!
Sure, you want to finish the alphabet and end up with some reasonable blogging content on your site. So just do it! Keep it simple if you like. Or do research and put great care into what you write. That's good too. It's all good. It just depends on what your own personal goals are and how you intend to achieve them.
Look at it this way: April Challenge month is like any other month except maybe in hyper mode. More writing than usual. More posting. More visiting. Same but bigger than usual. Next month you can slow down if you like and go back to blogging as normal.
Are you having fun with your normal blogging? Then have a good time with blogging during A to Z April. Make new friends. Learn new facts. Enjoy new fictions. Enjoy yourself. The first week is behind us now and the rest should go as easy if not easier.
Are you ready to have fun? Fine! Fantastic! Fabulous! Far out!
It's all about fun so don't get overly stressed. It's not like you're going to get fired from your blog. You are free to have fun. The A to Z Team is giving you permission. To have fun. Let's keep going!
Definitely a FUN one today. F is for Feathers 🪶

Fun? Yes. A little bit stressful? Sure. But it reminds me of how much I used to enjoy posting more than once a week.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely fun despite being hard work! The fun begins long before the writing, and continues with research and writing but best of all is the sense of belonging amongst friends with common purpose...
ReplyDeleteThis was a post I particularly had fun writing with "Are you a friend of Dorothy"

We're definitely in hyper mode.

Howdy,
ReplyDeleteI don't know about everyone else, but I'm freaking glad it's FRIDAY! Hope everyone has a great weekend...I'm going to try to get caught up on my posts for next week. Are we having FUN yet? We sure are! I'm glad to share friendship with all of you and I'd like to make you a cake
Cheers,

I can't tell you if "it's" FUN or not. If I say it's FUN, "somebody" might make me stop! Zulu Delta

It's not just about writing!
ReplyDeleteToday's F shoe: https://repeatsamb.blogspot.com/2023/04/atozchallenge-2023-f-is-for-fluevog.html
Very good advice. As with all things, enjoy it in the way that suits you. It's not a competition.
ReplyDeleteLove the post, and yes, it is fun so far! My F post is here
ReplyDeleteRight now, since all my posts on both blogs are written and scheduled, I'm having fun following about 40 other blogs. Some I will continue to follow after the challenge ends, some won't post again till next year, some will change to content that I'm not interested in. But for now, I'm having FUN!

ReplyDeleteHaving fun but it’s hard to keep up!

ReplyDeleteI am having such a fun A to Z! I usually do a Pinterest challenge for my A to Z, where I find a Pinterest project and try to re-create it. Fun but time consuming AND stressful with some of the harder letters (we all know which those are). And yes, I could start these projects waaaaay earlier in the year and have my posts written in advance of the challenge, but that wouldn't go with my fly-by-the-seat-of-the-pants lifestyle. I'm just writing about whatever comes to mind this year, and so far, so good!

Having a fun challenge so far -- writing, visiting, commenting, enjoying others' comments -- what's not to like? https://mollyscanopy.com/2023/04/florida-bound-my-first-trip-south-atozchallenge-2023/
