I Decided On More Torture



If you recall correctly, I unofficially entered the A to Z Challenge last April, well maybe you don't remember because at that point I had like 275 page views and two faithful followers (thank you by the way), so let me catch you up.  One of the two faithful readers, Lily who writes the incredibly funny The Incoherent Ramblings of a Moose, suggested on April 2nd that I should enter the A to Z Challenge.  Well I couldn't put my link in because it was past the deadline and after contacting the team over there, they said just do the challenge and link to it each week.  Well, 26 days later...wait isn't that a movie about some sort of zombie apocalypse?  I knew there was a correlation between the A to Z Challenge and survival, oh it was 28 Days Later, anyway...

I did a post a day for 26 days in April and tortured myself by doing so, however I gained some new readers and I would like to say that the A to Z Challenge boosted my blog.  So with that being said, I entered Who Woulda Thought? into the A to Z Challenge OFFICIALLY last night and of course in only my style, I screwed it up.  I entered the blog right, but forgot to add a category and then I Tweeted it out that I entered and was reprimanded by A to Z for not using the hashtag #atozchallenge.  Oops, my bad. 

Don't worry, from now on I will use the hashtag whenever I Tweet about the A to Z Challenge, I promise.  So, if you a reader that also blogs, I would like to urge you to sign up for this challenge, it was great for me and as much as I don't want to admit it, I enjoyed doing it.  Click the A to Z button up top to go to the page.

    And now because of you, I feel like I oughta sign up too. Better go to my doctor and get a prescription for Xanax!

    Seriously though, I so glad that you're taking part again this year. I need someone to have a nervous breakdown with. :)

  6. Can I make a suggestion for the sake of those of us who like to read multiple blogs and depend on a sparsed out schedule of those whom I read and perhaps feel overwhelmed by the volume of output generated by this challenge? Perhaps contemplate brevity. I absolutely wish you luck on this torturous endeavor.

  7. I did enjoy the experience last year, but haven't decided if I'll have the time to do it up right again this year. Maybe. Maybe not. I made myself nuts last year trying to visit all the blogs, and I'm betting there's gonna be even more participants this year. Anyhow. good luck to ya. Have fun!

  8. I'm envious of anyone who can do this. I cannot. Not while trying to maintain sanity. So good luck and don't forget to use hashtags outside of Twitter, too! I just love when people do that. #IDont #Whatsthepoint

  9. No worries on not using the hashtag! I'm a co-host and I forget.
    Glad you signed up again this year though.

  10. Don't feel bad, I got confused on the whole category thing. :/ And on top of that due to some snow and ice storms have had Internet troubles. :/
