Reflections on April A to Z Challenge


I think this year may have been my favorite challenge. Thanks so much to our hosts!!
1. I really enjoyed my own theme! I didn't get tired of writing about our adventures. I had some general ideas when I started the challenge but continued to brainstorm as I wrote the days. 
2. I wrote a couple of days ahead when possible. I found that when I was able to do this, it relieved the pressure I would feel to "get it done."
3. I visited more blogs this year than I have ever visited. I even visited the ones whose genre I would not normally read. I may have visited almost every single blog.
4. I didn't visit the ones with adult content. I'm not a prude and our streaming choices would back those words up, but sometimes I am on my work laptop and I just didn't feel it was wise.
5. I feel like more people commented on my blog than ever before. I loved reading the comments. I think that is one reason I really enjoyed this year's challenge. I tried to do reciprocity visits when possible and I tried to respond to comments.
6. I found a few blogs that I love so much . . .I actually made sure to read their posts every single day. I was actually sad when I realized their posts were over for now.
7. I have subscribed to a few more blogs so that I can keep reading.
8. I hope to participate again next year!
