It's that time again.
The Blogging from A to Z challenge is right around the corner. I have taken part in the challenge for 4 years now, with my first year being way back in 2011.
After last year's challenge,
I told myself that I wasn't going to participate this year. There were a
few things that happened that helped me come to that decision. I won't
go into them here, but the end result was that I needed a break.
I
was really good and didn't sign up for the challenge when the sign up
list opened up back in January. I have made a point to not think about
the challenge. I have tried really hard to forget the challenge is even
out there.
But
then it happened. I thought about the challenge. I got a 2016
participant email sent to me (even though I never signed up). Then the A
to Z chatter started popping up on Twitter. Naturally, I started making
a list of A to Z.
I am still telling myself that I am not going to be a part of this. I don't know how long I can hold out though.

I love your photos and your posts. But I totally understand the time commitment.
ReplyDeleteHope life is treating you well!
Thanks Juli! The time commitment is definitely a factor in doing the challenge. Don't you want to try and do the challenge again?
DeleteYou should join me! It's my first year participating and I'd love for us to keep tabs on each other during the month. You can find me at http://blog.jhwinter.com. What do you think? No pressure...but say yes :) It'll be fun!
ReplyDeleteJulianne Winter, I am THIS close to saying yes. Just haven't made the final decision yet. I am leaning more towards yes though. :-)
DeleteI understand the time commitment, believe me! I am actually planning to have them all done before April (only one left) because I'm doing Camp NanoWriMo and have a trip to Vancouver, Washington, planned toward the end. I think I'll only have time for a bit of promotion each day and that's about it :P
DeleteSounds like April will be a super busy month for you, Julianne. If I do the challenge this year, I really want to try and have all my posts scheduled and ready to go before April. In all the years that I have done the challenge, I have never done it that way.
DeleteIt seems like it would be much less stressful that way. That's why I'm going that route anyway. We shall see what happens in April!
DeleteThanks for the nice comments on my photos. I've done the A to Z before but wasn't able to last year. I thought I'd give it a try in 2016. I hope to see you in it this year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Dan. I remember your posts when you did the challenge. The year before last, wasn't it?
DeleteI have decided to join in on the fun and try the challenge for another year. :-)
No pressure of course, but loving your blog and it would be *so cool* to see what you come up with! Thanks for visiting me! ♥
ReplyDeleteThank you Natalie. :-)
