A - Z Blogging Challenge, 2013

I first found out about the A to Z Blog Challenge last year, which was its third year of operation. I didn't plan my posts ahead of time, so I didn't really follow any particular theme. Nonetheless, it was fun, and I discovered new blogs to read and met a lot of interesting people in the process.
 
The A to Z challenge invites bloggers to post 26 days in April, every day of the week except Sunday. On April 1, your article deals with something starting with the letter A; April 2, your content addresses an idea starting with the letter B, and so on all the way through the letter Z (or Zed, as we say in Canada).

This year I've signed up to participate again. I have a theme in mind and am busily doing my research. You'll have to stay tuned to find out what it is, but I think you'll like it!

If you haven't already joined the challenge, I'd encourage you to do so before the list closes on April 1st at 11:59 PM, EST. I'm number 859, and so far there are 1049 other bloggers who've made the commitment. Come and be part of the fun!

Hello, just thought I'd stop by to give you a wave *wave* and to wish you luck with this challenge. I've planned my posts, after reading that some people had struggled with writing their posts daily, but I'm struggling with Z (Zed - because I'm English!). I've still got a few weeks to think about it and get it done though.

Hi Rebeccah, I'll pop by your blog.
I say "zed" too - I'm Canadian, eh? ;)
