A to Z Sign-Up Day is Here!!!



Yay!

It's time to sign up for the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge 2012. I did it for the last two years and had fun, made new blogging friends, and found the tiny prompt of one letter of the alphabet just enough to get me going.

To get the basic information about this challenge and to sign up, head for the 2012 A to Z Sign Up List on the very special A to Z Challenge blog.

In addition to this dedicated blog, there's a Blogging from A to Z April Challenge page on Facebook, and you can follow the action on Twitter at #AtoZchallenge -- what more could you want in topnotch blogging challenge action?

Come on, bloggers. Do it. You know you want to.

Pat - Oh, that is a tempting challenge! I don't know if I'll take it up, but at least I'll visit the page :-).

I signed up this morning.

I have signed up and have started writing my posts already. I'm doing it a bit different this year, I'm hoping to come away with a novel from it.

Thanks for plugging the Challenge! After two years of participating, you certainly know the advantages.

Patricia Stoltey said...

Wow -- by the time I logged on and entered my link for the challenge, there were already 170 folks on board (including the organizer and hosts, of course).

Margot, you ought to try it at least once. It's great fun.

Clarissa, you're way ahead of me. I haven't even decided on a theme for this year's challenge...maybe I'll go with "random thoughts."

You're welcome, Alex. You know I'm a big fan of the challenge, its creator Arlee Bird, and the wonderful hosts who volunteer each year (especially you!).

Hey, Diane, I had to scoop your comment out of the Spam bucket for some reason.

I'm glad to see you're joining in the fun for 2012. You got there well ahead of me.

I've signed up!

Matthew MacNish said...

This will be my first year, but I'm honored to be co-hosting!

Elspeth Futcher said...

I admit I'm tempted. Hmmm....

Patricia Stoltey said...

Rebecca -- Yay! The more the merrier.

Matthew, you'll enjoy the experience so much, and you'll pick up a bunch of new followers, especially being a host.

Come on, Elspeth. It's fun, and just think of all those new friends you'll make (the ones who are now missing out on your wonderful sheepish posts).

Do I dare? How much time is left in each day? But maybe there's 26 different fly fishing items I could cover. HMMMMM.....

Hi Patricia - What a great post promoting the A to Z Challenge! Thank you, the extra exposure is much appreciated.

It's exciting to read this will be your third Challenge - WOW! I'm looking forward to dropping by and seeing what you'll have in store for us this year!

Cheers, Jenny @ Pearson Report
Co-Host of the Blogging from A to Z Challenge.

Dean--I know you can do 26 fly fishing posts -- and they don't have to be long ones -- and you can use photos. :)

Hi Jenny -- I'm still working on a theme for this year's challenge. Since I went ahead and booked guest bloggers each week, I'm now challenged to sneak my letter of the alphabet into my guest's titles...which could be interesting.
