@ Yvonne,
Thank you fo...@Retired Knitter,<br />Indeed! <br /><br />@ Yvonne,<br />Thank you for the wonderful comment. I am very much looking forward to April! <br /><br />@Mart Szemilk, <br />Glad I could help inspire some ideas! <br /><br />@ Stephen Tremp,<br />I am trying to go for a theme. There are just so many I want to do. . . .<br /><br />@Addman,<br />Perhaps Humor should be your theme. :D <br /><br />@ Arlee, Alex, and Matthew, Again. . . there are too many themes going through my head! I don't know which one to choose. <br /><br />@ Mish,<br />Thanks. And good luck! <br /><br />@ Joyce Sully,<br />While I am terrified, I am also pretty excited for April. <br /><br />@ Jenny @ Pearson Report, <br />That's my problem. . . the list of idea's is never ending and I can't decide on just one. <br />And thank you for the compliment. <br />@ Tina, <br />That's really interesting and I am really looking forward to reading your posts. <br /><br />@ Trisha,<br />I might have to go the same way. No theme. I just can't decide on One! <br /><br />@ Y U Think, <br />We would love to have you participate. Hope to see you at the challenge! <br /><br />@ Dawn Malone,<br />Glad I could help. You're Welcome! <br /><br />@ Jamie Gibbs, <br />I actually thought about doing my entire theme as Dragons. I am a HUGE dragon fan. I collect, I have books about them. I constantly look for new dragon things. <br />It's still on my list of idea's for April. I haven't decide for sure yet. <br /><br />@ Jean,<br />Thank you so much! That really means a lot. <br /><br />KonstanzKonstanz Silverbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06694326540031407757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-46938827606043503522012-01-21T21:19:41.889+00:002012-01-21T21:19:41.889+00:00You are a lovely person, Kontanz.

Last year I didn't ...Great inspiration for us! Last year I didn't do a theme. Didn't even think of it until I was further into the challenge and started noticing the people who did. That worked OK for me though, because that's just what my blog is: random. I started it to practice writing in hopes of one day being published. However, the theme idea really appealed to me. I'm an immigrant from Sweden, and many of posts (Christmas traditions, for example) are random stories of my Swedish heritage. I've had many people request more stories, so for this year's challenge, I'm calling it "Swedish Postscripts". Each post will be in that category, but I still have the chance to be random, just random, Swedish, on a specific letter. <br /><br /><a href="http://kmdlifeisgood.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tina @ Life is Good</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/" rel="nofollow">Co-Host of the April 2012 Blogging from A to Z Challenge</a><br /><br /><br />Twitter: #atozchallengeTinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08925730745204736744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-70950742390203558022012-01-20T22:18:36.086+00:002012-01-20T22:18:36.086+00:00You're right, Konstanz, the list is never endi...You're right, Konstanz, the list is never ending.

I think a great way to approach the challenge and pick a theme is to look at some topic you have always wanted to write about more. Even if you have a tightly focused blog, there's probably some aspect that has been somewhat neglected. The challenge seems like a great chance to really attack that area of untapped interest from lots of angles.Joyce Sullyhttp://www.joycesully.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-26088995970920042752012-01-20T18:50:53.334+00:002012-01-20T18:50:53.334+00:00Thanks for the great post!
