If you’re doing the Blogging from A to Z Challenge in April, I encourage you to read this excellent post at Tasha’s Thinking:
3 Top Tips for the AtoZChallenge
A challenge veteran, Tasha offers suggestions for newbies and returnees to the challenge alike. The comments section of the post provided even more useful tips.
Speaking of tips, if you aren’t already reading the Blogging from A to Z Challenge blog, you should be! I picked up tips there this week for finding images, creating a signature for my comments, and keeping organized when responding to posts during the challenge.
I can’t wait until April! Are you ready for the challenge? Have you found any other A-Z Challenge tips you’ve found useful? I can use all the help I can get!
I was interested in the A-Z challenge but find the sign up process very confusing with all the letters needed etc. So I haven’t done it yet.

It seems like an interesting read, but I also find the contest a little too constrictive with my schedule. I look forward to reading the others 🙂

The A-Z is definitely a *challenge* but I figure I should try it once and see how it goes. I may never be brave enough to do it again after this try! 🙂

It’s definitely the toughest challenge I’ve done in terms of logistics. This will be my first try, so we’ll see how it goes!

I moved the A-Z posts all to one top-level menu for April to make life easier for visitors. I’ve been so focused on figuring out what I’m writing that I hadn’t thought much about the logistics. April will be interesting!

Amy, I’m going to have to drop out of the challenge. ☹️ I’ll be putting up a post this weekend to explain. On the plus side, I’ll have a little more time for keeping up with everyone else’s posts! You sound prepared and ready! I’m excited for you!!

Oh no! I hope all is well! I keep asking myself why in the world I’m doing this… I need a good challenge every now and then to get out of the normal procrastination routine. Take care!

I wanted to join the A to Z challenge, but I can’t do that and fill the massive holes in my novel… I’ll be cheering you on from the sidelines, though 🙂

I’m using this challenge as a reset of sorts. I got bogged down in a revision (I HATE revising), so I’ve promised myself that after this blogging break, it’s back to work! Good luck with your project! What’s the novel genre?

Thanks. Contemporary dystopia probably sums it up best – it’s about a prototype supersoldier on the run from the people who created her.

Sounds like a fun project! I’m procrastinating from revising with blogging! 🙂
