Magic Month ( #AtoZChallenge )

Magic Month

 

       For bloggers I think April is a magical month mainly because of the A to Z Challenge.  This is the time to network, to get your blog out in the spotlight, and to find out what other bloggers are doing on their sites.  If you walk away from April without having made at least one new blogging friend then you haven't been taking advantage of this great opportunity to grow your blog and your blogging circles.  

      In my own blog searches I've had some of those "Wow!" moments when I learn something new or discover a blogging talent that catches me off guard.  It's like going to a fair or some widespread event where we have the opportunity to show off our own pursuits as well as admire the work of others.  It's a truly festive time for those who enjoy blogging.

       Have fun!  This is a magic month that can be a big boost to your blog and allow you to interact with the other bloggers in the Challenge.  The magic is there, but if you don't believe in the magic then you'll likely miss it.   You don't want to do that!   Go visit some blogs right now!

       Have you gained some new readers?   Have you discovered any blogs that you will continue to visit after the Challenge has ended?   Do you have any especially magical memories from the 2024 Challenge so far?

Kaleidoscope of Knowledge ( #AtoZChallenge )

Kaleidoscope of Knowledge

         If you've been reading some of the A to Z blog posts you've likely been aware of the wide array of knowledge and interests that the A to Z bloggers present to us in their posts.  There is everything from history to futuristic ideas.  We have a plethora of interests ranging from crafts, art, family, and literary pursuits.  There are stand alone articles as well as ongoing series telling interesting stories. A to Z has it all!

        Hope you are leaving comments on the posts you visit and sharing those posts with others via social media.  Some bloggers have obviously put a lot of work into their posts and they deserve to be recognized for their efforts.  Please give your fellow bloggers a pat on the back and let others know about the wonderful things you have discovered in your A to Z journey.

         Are their any particular blogs that you think deserve a special mention?   What is the most fascinating thing you've discovered in reading A to Z blog posts this year?   Have you been getting enough visits this April?

What are you gathering during this year's Challenge? 

Experience? - A challenge is a great way to practice blogging, and learn what style of posting best fits you. It also helps with forming a regular blogging habit.

Information? - Setting a good theme for yourself can inspire some in-depth research that can come in handy for later projects too!

Comments? - I love reading the comments during the challenge! They light up a blogger's day. (If you leave thoughtful comments, you are the best!)

New blogs to follow? - Yes please! I love finding new and interesting blogs, and new and interesting people who write them.

Books to read? - A to Z always adds a whole lot to one's TBR, beware! :)

Challenge Yourself #AtoZChallenge 2024

Sign-up for the challenge! ***https://forms.gle/41PjgHFL4zwnM2Am7 ***

You! Yes you! Welcome to the April A to Z Blogging Challnege! CHALLENGE is in the title for a reason. You have taken it on, and that is amazing! Whether you see it through or not, whether you are preparing or pantsing, whether you are a first-time blogger or a returning participant - you are doing great! 

Just joining A to Z is a great step. You might not finish this year. You might come back next year anyway. That is okay. We are all here, CHEERING you on!

Are you setting an extra challenge for yourself this year? 

A THEME can be an added challenge! A lot of people do it. It makes selecting each letter a bit more tricky, but it also gives your readers something to come back for.

PANTSING can be a challenge too. It makes you write regularly every day - write fast and with enthusiasm. Good job!

PLANNING is also a challenge, because it takes foresight and preparation. Well done!

You may also challenge yourself to VISIT others during the month of April, reading their posts and cheering them on. That also takes time and effort, and we are very grateful if you do it!

Are you setting an extra challenge for yourself?

Tell us all about it in the comments!

And if not - don't sweat it! Just by participating in A to Z, you are already doing a whole lot! :) Pat yourself on the back!

Big Blog Bash! ( #AtoZChallenge )

Sign-up for the challenge! ***https://forms.gle/41PjgHFL4zwnM2Am7 

      Here we are again for the Big Blog Bash of the year:   The Blogging from A to Z April Challenge.  Kicking things off is the easy part.   Keeping it going for the whole month is the Challenge.  If you've done it before then you know what I'm saying, if you're doing your first A to Z then you probably still know what I'm saying or at least get an inkling.

       The bottom line is that this can be a big deal or a big bust but either way have fun.  I don't advise anyone getting stressed unless stress is the big motivator in your life. Completing a blog challenge is like good driving.  Take it nice and easy, watch where you're going, and avoid using your brakes unless it's necessary. I don't know if that metaphor works for you, but I like it.

     No matter how you approach it, Blogging from A to Z is a breeze for many of us.  And if it's not then no big deal.  We're here to have a good time.  Hope you do!
