Road to Publication: A to Z Blog Challenge

For the first time, I’ll be joining the Blogging from A to Z Challenge. The challenge takes place throughout the month of April, and each day (except Sunday), you write a blog focused on each letter of the alphabet in sequential order.

So, on April 1st, the blog topic will have something to do with the letter A, for instance, write about apples. April 2nd, the topic must be focused on the letter B, for instance, write about bananas. You get the idea.

The organizers of the challenge suggest you have a theme for all your blogs, for instance, fruit! They also suggest making your blogs short—100 to 300 words--so you aren’t burned out by mid-April.

Hundreds of bloggers have signed up for the challenge, and there’s still time if you’re interested.

I think it will be hard work, but also a lot of fun. Another advantage is you meet other bloggers, which is nice to have more blogger friends, interesting blogs to read, and more exposure for your own blog.

My theme for the blog challenge is Creativity. As a writer, I believe that’s an important characteristic to have and to nurture. But you don’t have to be a writer, or an artist, or an actor to express your creativity. Think about it. Creativity means, to me, expanding your mind, digging deeper into whatever talent you might have. Even mathematicians and scientists express their creativity as they search for new solutions to problems.

So I’ll be exploring different aspects of creativity during the blog challenge. I hope you’ll join me in this April adventure!
