I blog. I blog hard! I’ve been blogging for years on my other sites, but Literary Laundry List is a baby blog. So, I haven’t filled its pages with witty and informative posts – yet. *Queue the Jaws score!* I’ve signed up for the A-Z Challenge!
If you aren’t familiar with the A-Z Challenge, it’s sort of like a triple-dog-dare for bloggers, but way more fun. The idea is to write every day of the week, minus one, leaving 26 days in the month of April and tada, one letter per day for each letter of the alphabet!
Yea, it sounds like a major endeavour, and I appreciate your concern.
There are some major benefits to participating, though. First, it’s a challenge, and I love a challenge. Tell me I can’t do something and I’ll do my best to smash it. Even if it’s only in my head 😉 . Second, it’s a way to flex creative muscles. Coming up with 26 pretty much consecutive blog posts is giving me a headache going to be thrilling (or awful, you can tell me when April hits)! Third, I’m a writer. I write. A lot, and about everything. I write on blogs, for a living, and creatively. I eat words for breakfast nom nom nom! And lastly, it’s a kick-ass way to network.
“So, what does this have to do with me?” I’m happy to answer that! Well, besides watching me go slowly insane as the pads of my fingers grow strong with calluses, it means that the virgin pages of Literary Laundry List will soon fill up with book reviews, writing and blogging posts, photos, guest posts, and exceptional randomness – just for you ♥.
I’m actually very excited to be a part of this blogging tradition. Besides the benies up there, it’ll be the most creative month of the year for me as I write my little heart off. Who knows, I might just finish that novel I’ve been working on *crossing fingers!*. So, bring on the coffee, boost those brain cells, and crack those knuckles! Here comes the A-Z Challenge!
Are you participating this April? I’d love to hear what you’re looking forward to and what your thoughts on the subject are.
Please visit the Guest Post page to submit your own book review!
As always, take care and be kind ☆彡
Wow, this sounds awesome. I can’t wait to see what you come up with. I’m not sure I could find the time to make sure I posted for 26 straight days, so mad respect to you!! ☺️

Cross your fingers for me! You should give it a try too; then I can have someone to commiserate, I mean talk to 😉
kewl post!
Thanks, DJ!
that’s neat! I would totally forget a few posts.
I’m terrified that I’m going to fudge this all up! I’ve been working on an editorial calendar for a week now trying to fill up each day with posts 🙂 Wish me luck!
I have to admit, I’m nervous that will happen 🙂 I’ve made the most detailed editorial calendar to avoid missing a day, but it’s going to be a lot of fun!
