Unfortunately today there is no list of recaps here . . . but this happened to me once before during the challenge with the list of participants, so I'm hoping it's a similar hiccup and the list will return shortly. In the meantime, reminder I've put many recaps on my Listly list as well. Feel free to add yours if you missed the deadline or if I haven't gotten to you yet - I think I was up to #120 last I checked. Thanks again for organizing and for everyone who dropped by my blog. It was fun.<br /><br />Listly: http://list.ly/list/17Wd-2016-a-to-z-challenge-wrap-upsLissaJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11584807385075888865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-78595651052818578492016-05-15T13:29:18.035+00:002016-05-15T13:29:18.035+00:00we put our reflections post up the week before - t...we put our reflections post up the week before - then forgot to join the list! darn!<br /><br />http://reallyrealhousewivesofamerica.blogspot.com/2016/05/a-to-z-reflections.htmlTara Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587802105993889515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-91013181720661145072016-05-15T02:21:14.451+00:002016-05-15T02:21:14.451+00:00I didn't get my reflection done until today, b...I didn't get my reflection done until today, but if it can be added, here it is...http://allnatchic.com/ReflectionANCTesstimoanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06584145476137577518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-65981674207979949172016-05-14T18:05:27.760+00:002016-05-14T18:05:27.760+00:00I'm with Thea.

I wrote about my characters, 'A is for Achille' to 'Z is for Zenobia' at inspirationcauldron.wordpress.com, and I wrote 'A is for Aissa' to 'Z is for Zoe' at inspirationcauldron.blogspot.com. The theme was 'My Characters Have the Last Word'. I let my characters talk/complain in first person (or second person in 'E is for Emma'). I got a rush of future story and novel ideas from my blogs. Plus, I got ideas for titles for what had only been story fragments and ideas. Those titles pulled those fragments into coherent concepts, which are sneaking their way into other projects. :) Thank you so much for the rush of creativity which this project brought on! You will be seeing more of my characters in the future! :) rhodrymavelynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12205976343207866410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-24523675841161109882016-05-10T16:09:39.963+00:002016-05-10T16:09:39.963+00:00It was a real challenge with my house full of babi...It was a real challenge with my house full of babies and little help to write, read, comment and share with a very iffy WiFi connection and a cable connection that was acting up.

It is a lovely way to meet new bloggers, learn about their lives and to make new friends from all around the world. I took up the challenge knowing full well I didn't have time, already overwhelmed with other pressing urgencies. We learn to think on our feet (our desk chair seat?) and move through obstacles or around them and are impelled to jog loose rigidities formed by habit. I find the process exhilarating and fun.<br /><br />Thank you, Arlee and helpers. I have no complaints.Samantha Mozarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04672264359384385758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-12733584656700695522016-05-10T13:28:55.116+00:002016-05-10T13:28:55.116+00:00Ooooops, I just added my link to the linky list (c...Ooooops, I just added my link to the linky list (currently at # 200) but there is clearly a problem - I must have erred somehow.

I also visited a lot of blogs with zero comments on posts or one or two. I'm not sure how to increase readership for those types of blogs, but maybe themselves were't marketing their blogs well in not visiting a lot of people, etc. <br /><br />All in all; looking forward to 2017.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-79596858753941441032016-05-09T12:53:01.881+00:002016-05-09T12:53:01.881+00:00Hi Alex - the A-Z is a great (GREAT) way to meet n...Hi Alex - the A-Z is a great (GREAT) way to meet new bloggers and connect - I love the mix of peoples I get to relate to ... and then stay friends with.<br /><br />We all need to appreciate where we're at - and realise that any niggles we have with the Challenge we just need to get over ... and get on with things - utilising the huge advantage we have on just being here and participating.
