I Am in Blogs Stepped in So Far…

M: Midway Point Check-In

A-Z April[1]It’s April 15th, Tax Day (although it’s been pushed back to Monday this year). I could have used M for “Money” and written a post about it, but why bring everyone down? Besides, I took take of my taxes in January, then took care of the refund in February.

No, this is a quick first half review of the A to Z Blogfest, for which all these April posts have been written.  So far, I’ve managed to post all the letters, despite being what some people refer to as a “pantser” (not sure if I like that term).  My directory’s taken a few hits as some of the posts are not on the subject I’d originally intended.  Also, I’ve copped out a few times, posting a rerun for K and a video from Sesame Street* for I.  Still, I’m not only am I squeaking by on my letters, but I’ve written a few decent posts (if I’m allowed to say that) that I wouldn’t have otherwise considered.

On the other hand, I’ve really sucked at commenting.  I started out pretty good, but lately I’ve only managed to get to a few blogs a day, if that.  In fact, I’m backlogged on responding to the comments I’ve gotten.  I think I’m just now on the H’s.  I will get to them all, though.  Hopefully.  Maybe.  In the meantime, I offer a blanket thank you to everyone who’s commented and/or followed since this fest began.

The bottom line: I’m having a good and writing more (blogs, sure, but writing is writing), so I’d call it a success.

 

 

*yes, Sesame Street.

    I'd call it a success too. It's all about fun, in the end.

    It is daunting that is for sure.

    It's been fun, but getting around to everyone is tough. It takes me about 2-3 hours to get through all my blogs, and even then I'm not able to comment on every one.

    Had I not scheduled all my posts in March, I would barely have been able to get around, let alone comment.

    I say you've been very successful too!
    I think most people have fizzled with following and commenting - I know I have. Trying to rejuvenate myself!

    Commenting has become a bit overwhelming (ooo, a Monday word). Doing the best I can.

    I'm actually really enjoying doing these posts. These would have been cool school assignments - been so long since I've been in school.
