An A - Z Challenge TAG



Jenny at the Pearson Report - a co-host of the Blogging A - Z Challenge - has started a game of TAG.

I'm going to answer them now, and then it's your turn, should you choose to accept!

HERE ARE THE QUESTIONS:
Are you signed up for the A to Z Challenge? 
Yes, yes I have! My first time... I'm a little scared!
What is your sign-up number? 
I'm at # 145 Wake up, eat, write, sleep
Are you ready? If yes...explain yourself. 
Well, I've got my theme. I've got the letters Q, V and Z sorted. I've even written two posts, and I've already had to cheat on B!
If you’re not ready...what’s your excuse? 
Well, after A, B, Q, V and Z, it all goes a bit downhill. But I'm sure I'll be ready by April. I'm absolutely, positive I'll be ready by April... Did I mention I've got my theme?
So now it's your turn. Just copy and paste these questions in your post and encourage your followers to do the same!
What are you waiting for...you’ve just been TAGGED!
If you haven't signed up and you want to, click the link to the Pearson Report at the top of the page.

    Annalisa - How terrific! Thanks for playing TAG with me! Your answers made me laugh...seems like we're all in the same boat. We have ideas, themes, outlines...the list goes on. But the good news is in April it all comes together.

    Last year was my first Challenge, and I had only found out about it the day before it started...I had an absolute blast! You will too!

    I've added your blog to my TAGGED BY PEARSON REPORT Blog List and entered you in the draw for the artwork designed by my daughter - I hope you had a chance to check out the link to her site.

    Good luck!

      I'm hoping I can keep up with the posting, checking out other posts, and my WIP (and my day job) all going at the same time.

    I think I have a theme, but still unsure. I have 1 post written. Hoping to have them all by April *grins*.

      I played around with themes for a few days before I decided I had enough to post about. Once you start thinking, the letters come pretty easily.

    Don't be scared! It's a lot of fun.

      Scared in a good way - like bungee jumping. (Although, as I'm scared of heights, and even more scared of plummetting freely to the ground, it's a lot easier than bungee jumping!)

    Themes? We need themes? *panics*

      I think having themes is a suggestion to keep you on track - but they can be as loose as you like.

    I've signed up.... but I'm not nearly as prepared as you! I probably won't be, either. I post every week day, so I figure it will be kind of like normal, only with more creative post titles and possibly topics. Or am I doing this wrong?

    I'll be doing this one as soon as I have a free blog day - the more people that sign up, the merrier :-)

      I'm really looking forward to discovering lots of new blogs.

    I'm signed up (hosting again this year, which is even more fun) and looking forward to it! Only I am way behind on my posts. I have 2 scheduled, that's it.

      I can't even imagine the amount of work that goes into hosting something like this. I guess discipline is key!

    OMG we're supposed to have each letter planned out by now? I haven't even started. It's my first year too--can you tell? I guess I better get on it. ;)

      No, no, no... you don't HAVE to. You can do it all on the day, if you like to work that way. I've started planning because I know I'd panic and end up posting late. Some people are scheduling all their posts before April starts; others aren't doing anything until April starts. Don't panic :-)

      Jennifer, Annalisa is right, you don't HAVE to have anything ready at all. I joined last year's Challenge on March 30th and enjoyed coming up with my post on the day of - nothing preplanned or themed out.

      So do NOT panic! Just sit back and relax and most importantly HAVE FUN!

    I'm doing the A to Z challenge on my gardening blog. I totally chickened out on my main blog - I'm one to plan ahead, and Mama Diaries is so unpredictable! Good luck with the challenge!

      I bet gardening is a great subject - so many Latin names! Although I'd probably be stuck after daffodils and roses - I'm not at all green fingered.

      Brilliant. I've got 16 letters. I only realised last night when I looked at my list - I thought I had them all!

    I think you'll do just fine. Welcome to the Challenge. I've added this to the next Sunday Summary.
