F is For Foolish, as in foolish me. You see I’m about to launch into the 2012 WordCount Blogathon for the month of May and I’m using the A to Z challenge format to get me going again (that was fun, if a little stressful).
I found out about the blogathon on Julie Farrar’s delightful blog, Travelling Through. I thought it would be a terrific way to document my trip back to the past via England where I paid a visit to my old chum, Joan, from our lives in Zambia. (She’ll be commenting, who are you calling old, you just watch and see). Plus, Michelle V. Rafter, who hosts the blogathon has theme days: May 7th “Five movies that have inspired my blogging,” don’t know about that, but hey, I’m game. May 14th, “Guest Post Exchange Day.” May 21st, Haiku Day. I love haikus, never written one. But I shall. May 23rd, finish the phrase–“If I started blogging today I would . . .” Hmmm. Stay tuned. Hopefully, I can stay the course while finishing my final edit on my memoir, Loveyoubye. And everything else.
I love a gal who loves a (constant) challenge!
Perhaps I’m (as they say in England), not the full shilling, eh? (I was dying to use that term somewhere, even though it will appear in one of the upcoming blogs).
Oh you are something, Rossandra!
Love it. You’re a fabulous writer – and blogging is one of your finest arenas. I was glad I jumped in the daily blog thing with you last month. I used it differently. I didn’t do it every day. At first I was po’d with myself, but then I realized I had written longer things on some of the blog pieces I did do. I’m working on one right now. So, I’m glad I jumped in! I’m very very glad you’re also working on Loveyoubye. Cheers, doll!
Thank you, thank you, dear friend! Cheers!
Man oh man, you’ll really are a glutton for punishment. Trying two challenges at once is crazy. Good luck! Glad you got in under the wire.
Thanks to you?? Just kidding. Thank you Julie.
Watch it! If you call Joan old that makes me (& you!) the same. Shhhhhhhh.
Exactly. Shhh.
Good for you! You totally put me to shame.
Not so. I could never keep up with you.
I look forward to traveling along with you on your trip to England. You are a marvelous writer!
Soo appreciated.
I can’t imagine blogging every day . . . I can imagine admiring someone who flexes her writing muscles for a blogathon. I am, indeed, curious and curioser.
The whole process is surprising me, frustrating and exhilarating at the same time.
