Another April blogging from A to Z has come and gone and I am happy to say that I was successful in completing the challenge. I am not one of those bloggers that is capable of writing a slew of posts ahead of time and scheduling them. I am the queen of procrastination. I envy those bloggers that can do that. I am more a fly by the seat of my pants kind of girl sometimes posting in the last hours before midnight. Still I completed and managed to find some amazing new blogs to follow in the bargain. It is all good.
Of all the challenges I have attempted the A to Z month long challenge is by far the most fun. It is a challenge that when you publish that Z post at the end of April you feel an overwhelming sense of accomplishment that parallels climbing Everest. You feel like doing high fives with people and jumping up and down. I went into this challenge with a different purpose this year. I hoped it would jump start my desire to write. I ended the challenge with mixed feelings about blogging. On one hand I am itching to write something else and the need to post and on the other I feel the need to just pause…then go…then pause!
Would I blog from A to Z again? I don’t even have to think about it. Hell yes I would!!! It is fun and realizing there are so many bloggers out there doing the same thing is mind blogging and somehow comforting. We are all in it together and I like that! With the arrival of May I find myself needing to pause from the frenetic pace of writing every single day and instead writing when the spirit moves me. If it is almost every day so be it. If it is a few times a week, that is OK too. Congratulations to all the bloggers everywhere that participated in the challenge and felt that sense of pride and satisfaction when they hit publish on that Z post. I am proud to be among your ranks!
