Author Blog Challenge # 27
What has been the best part of participating in the Author
Blog Challenge? What are your suggestions for improving the next Author Blog
Challenge?
There have been many positives for me in participating on
the Author Blog Challenge, but the best part has been other writers taking the
time to visit and comment on my bog posts. This is something I truly
appreciate, as there is nothing more inspirational for a writer than to know
they have been read and appreciated. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, even
if you didn’t have time to comment. Taking part in challenges such as this adds
diversity to my writing. It causes me to reflect on where I have been, to
understand where change is needed and, in some strange way, to determine longer
term focus. This has probably been the most worthwhile aspect of this
challenge, as I have made firm resolution about priorities for the future. To
be honest though, a professional lifetime of churning out reports on the run
stands me in good stead for writing non-fiction, so it is not as time consuming
as it may appear.
I don’t really have any suggestions for change as I think it
was terrific as it was, thank you Laura/Marcie, but if I were to mention
anything, it would be to have a challenge where everyone followed the prompt
for the day, as against writing their usual blog post. This would add extra
interest for me and I would feel we were all on the same footing. This biggest
aspect of this challenge for me has been extending myself beyond my usual blog
posting, to really think about and explore each daily prompt and respond
accordingly - that to me was the challenge.

It was great meeting you during this challenge Merlene & hearing what you got out of the challenge too.
ReplyDeleteIt was great reading your posts during this challenge, Merlene. (I'm still working my way through the posts from different days of the challenge.) I agree that it would be nice for everyone to follow the prompts.
