How did you go with the A-Z Challenge? Are you glad or sad it's over? For those who took part, would you do it again?
I'll be back on Wednesday for the Insecure Writers' Support Group.
Note: For the month of April during the A-Z Challenge I paused from my usual blogging theme of writing and social media tips. Instead I shared my photography. Much of it was inspired by the fabulous and helpful site, The Bookshelf Muse. Please check it out and enjoy.

I'm kind of both sad and glad it is over. Sad because it was fun to participate. Glad because it was more work than I anticipated.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are great! Hope you don't stop.
Hi Lynda, I am glad that it is over, too much work and I know I neglected some followers like yourself. Congrats on finishing!
ReplyDeleteYay you made it!!! Phew!!!! Well done you! Take care

I'm a bit ambivalent about it all. I'm definitely glad I can finally go back to working on my WiP. And I'm thankful for the Challenge for introducing me to some cool new blogs, and for my influx of new followers.There's always next year!
ReplyDeleteIt takes a year to recover, I think ;)
DeleteI'm glad it's over. I can actually zoom on to other things!
ReplyDeleteCool photo.
I'm going to miss my theme, although that's something I can continue if I like. But I think I'm beat! Glad you remembered the IWSG. Glad we get a day to rest in between!
ReplyDeleteIf not for the IWSG I would've taken a break. I'll take one afterwards.
DeleteI'm glad I took part - I'll definitely be back for a second go at it next year. I've loved finding and reading new blogs.
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda! Great way to wrap up the A to Z Challenge.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad it's over, but also looking forward to doing it again next year. It's been fun meeting so many great bloggers.

PUTTING WORDS DOWN ON PAPER
I think I'm definitely ready for a month of normal writing, but it was great to meet so many people. I will definitely do it next year.
ReplyDeleteThis was an awesome contest. I've really enjoyed reading all you A-Z posts!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Amazing that everyone had different words.
DeleteI love being on a passanger's seat...
ReplyDeletesmart move. You got to enjoy the challenge without the intensity of it.
Deletethis photograph can ba personification of a ''flashback of life''
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative :)
Deleteits your photography that inspired my creativity:-)
DeleteExcellent finish to the challenge!
ReplyDeleteMan, I didn't do the A-Z and I'm still exhausted! You guys were all amazing. I'm shocked at the creativity and stamina with all of your posts! You were awesome, Lynda :D
ReplyDeleteI admire all of you A to Z bloggers. I just would not have been able to do it.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to decide if I'm going to scraggle in with the letters I missed last week after the bell ...
ReplyDeleteI so enjoyed your theme, Lynnie. You posted some truly unique images.
Thanks so much, Suze.
DeleteBe warned, the last few letters aren't easy ;)
My month kinda felt like that shot. I pretty much zoomed through the month, trying to keep up with posting.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy with what I've accomplished but I'm glad it's over. I have a lot of book promoting to do...maybe. I enjoyed the many blogs though. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your maybe book promoting :)
DeleteI loved your A-Z challenge! Awesome theme.
ReplyDeleteReally cool photo! I especially love the way the center line is squiggly, and the darkness on the left is smudgy. :)
ReplyDeletesome of the photos in this sequence weren't so good because hubby would drive over a bump and the camera would shift so the lights would squiggle too much, lol.
DeleteGlad I don't have to worry about posting and commenting so often, sad that it's the end of something that challenged me to work harder at blogging. Definitely going to participate again come 2013. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat photograph--congratulations on finishing the Challenge!
Hey, I used Vroom for V, so you can definitely get away with Zoom for Z !
ReplyDeleteCongrats on making it to the end. We're all a little worn out I think and need a break. Catch up with you again later.
The month just zoomed by, didn't it? Still, I'm glad it's over, since now life can return to normal. But I'll be back for more next year. I'm a glutton for punishment.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sad it's over, but I've really enjoyed it! Much more fun than I expected :)
ReplyDeleteI find I"m a bit of both. Happy to post whatever I'd like but sad to see everyone else's challenges end.
ReplyDeleteGreat Z and great photography, Lynda. I'm a bit of both. Even tho I only posted every other day, it was still a lot of work. Couldn't keep up w/ everybody. I don't get much of a break with my tour starting next week. I'll probably do it again. We'll see.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the Blogging A to Z Challenge. It was great connecting with writers like you, Lynda, and I would be possibly interested in doing this again if I can. Thanks for sharing your wonderful photographic images this month.
ReplyDeleteI did not participate in the A-Z Challenge - but I did enjoy the posts of those who did, including you, Lynda. Thanks for the mention of the Bookshelf Muse; somehow I had never followed them.
ReplyDeleteIt was fun, Lynda--and hectic. I am ready to slow down a bit. Overall, I feel fortunate to have connected with so many fantastic writers--and I count you among them! Kudos for making it to the end.
ReplyDeleteI made it through and I'm glad I did it, but if I had to answer today whether r not I'd do it again, I'd have to say no. But give me 9 months and I'll probably change my mind. Thanks for all the gorgeous pics!
ReplyDeletewow..lovely theme..
ReplyDeletechanced by your space while blog hopping..
awesome space you have Lynda..
excellent posts with interesting presentation
happy following you..:)
do stop by mine sometime
Tasty Appetite
Congrats on finishing the Challenge. It was great finding new blogs, but man, I'm tired.
ReplyDeleteI will do it again, only because I do love a challenge, but instead of deciding literally less than 24 hours it started, I will plan ahead.
I am sad it's over, but glad I can post something that has nothing to do with any letter from A to Z.

Congratulations on finishing the A to Z challenge!
It was my first time doing A to Z. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, although it was tiring at times. I want to do it again next year.
ReplyDeleteWe did it. :)
Yes, I love this photo, nice light.
ReplyDeleteI missed out since I was away on holiday... but I loved seeing everyone's.
ReplyDeleteI learned so much, and made many new friends. As exhausting as it was, yes, I would do it again! Thanks for your part in it all, Lynda!

You beat the challenge! Congrats.
ReplyDeleteI'm SO tired!
I like the photo.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Lynda on completion of the challenge!
ReplyDeleteWe actually came up with the same word of "Z"
The challenge was just that for me - a challenge! I had fun; it stretched that thinking apparatus and gained me a lot of fellow bloggers!
Yes , I would definitely participate next year! After all that I gained this year, I can only gain more and put what I did gain into practice - thus becoming a better me and better at what I do!
