Blogging AtoZ Challenge 2015
“The brainchild of , at Tossing it Out, the AtoZ Challenge is posting every day in April except Sundays (we get those off for good behavior.) And since there are 26 days, that matches the 26 letters of the alphabet.
On April 1, blog about something that begins with the letter “A.” April 2 is “B,” April 3 is “C,” and so on.
You can use a theme for the month or go random – just as long as it matches the letter of the alphabet for the day.”
Twitter hashtag is and Twitter id is
And be sure to check out , a Twitter list composed of individuals I have every intention of visiting during this year’s challenge.
The Great and Powerful AtoZ Challenge Theme Reveal Blogfest!
“One of the most burning questions participants ask themselves every year is:
Themes are not mandatory, but definitely fun. They let your visitors know what to expect, and help you create posts that line neatly up from A to Z.
They also have an added bonus:
They let you participate in a whole separate blogfest!”
There was some question as to whether or not I even wanted to participate in the AtoZ Challenge.
Quite frankly, there still is.
I haven’t completed the exercise in the last several years. At least in 2014 I made it halfway through the alphabet. So that happened.
It seems kind of self-defeatist to sign up again.
And yet.
Here I am, signing up. Revealing my theme. Giving it another shot. Trying again. Beating my head against the same brick wall and hoping for different results.
Because one of my Personal Commandments is, “Don’t stop starting.” And also, “Every day can be Day #1.”
etc.
And, since February kicked my metaphorical arse, I have decided to dedicate the month of April to rebooting my anti-Depression, Andi-Beatification, SOP {Standard Operating Procedures}.
Based on the original Happiness Project by , I created my own personal Happiness Project several years ago. I occasionally reference it, but I think it’s time to pull it back out the box, shake it off, and give it a new coat of paint.
My AtoZ Challenge 2015 theme is:
The Happiness Project
I will update this “Landing Page” with all the links as I post throughout the month.
