Time for A-Z Challenge Reflections. I think this was my fifth year participating in A-Z. I’ll briefly discuss what I liked about the challenge, then I’ll look at some things where I could do better.

There’s a lot to like about this challenge:

• Increased blog traffic — this is more noticeable in the first weeks of the challenge
• I have fun putting together my posts each year and seeing who shows up
• Each year the organizers get better at making things easier for us participants
• I love the T-shirts
• I think I did a better job of keeping my posts shorter this year
• I enjoy visiting new blogs, learning about all the things people can discuss at length, and their creativity for doing so

 

To  do better, I need to do a better job of getting around to other blogs. I did a better job this year of visiting my neighbors on the list, and I think I visited everyone who commented on my blog and left a comment.

Thank you organizers and the rest of the team for coordinating everything.
