The Great A – Z April Challenge Theme Reveal!

atoz-theme-reveal-2015

I’m doin’ it! And my theme will be…

….

…..

(that’s a drumroll)

……

RANDOM!

In my effort to decide on a theme, I picked up my thesaurus and started leafing through it. Still not being able to decide, I decided to decide on the second-last entry word in the left hand column of the left hand page of whichever page I open the book to on that day, regardless of what the word is (keeping in alphabetical order of course), thus challenging myself beyond the challenge of writing twenty-six entries during the month of April.

Don’t be surprised if your SoCS prompts correspond with the letter of the day… *checks to see if “X” falls on a Saturday* … no it does not. Hooray for you!

If you’re announcing your theme today for the A – Z Challenge, please leave a link in the comments. Anyone reading this, check out the other participants. It’s a wonderful time of the year to connect!

    Good luck Linda! I have enrolled both my blogs for the challenge. Doing a series of recipes on my food blog and as for my writing, could you drop in here?

    I’d kinda panic if I didn’t know what I was going to write about, but I know random can be fun too.

      Oh I thrive on writing by the seat of my pants. This is going to be a piece of cake compared to last year’s A-Z fiction piece I did, where I had people reading along daily to a story in which I had no idea what was going to happen until I wrote it, the day it was published. Thanks for your comment, J.L. 🙂

    Too bad X doesn’t fall on a Saturday! That would be loads of fun :-).

    I post every day anyway, but I may, just for grins and giggles, do the A to Z challenge without officially joining the challenge. That way, if I fall flat on my face on or before I get to the letter “X,” I can just say, hey, what A to Z challenge are you referring to? I am not a part of it.

    I do random pretty well. I might be able to handle a couple of SoCS prompts. Good luck on 26.

    Random works. I kind of went back and forth and then realized I already have a posting schedule. Mine is therefore going to be semi-random. 🙂
