While the A-Z Blogging Challenge has been around for several years, this is my second time to participate – and I am thrilled!
For those who are unfamiliar with this annual event, the challenge runs from April 1-30 and encourages bloggers to write a post a day (except for Sundays) – each day focusing on a different letter of the alphabet.
Last year my theme was Paris A-Z – to tie in with a middle grade novel I was writing that focused on the French Impressionists. (As an addendum… I did complete the first draft and am now working on revisions).
This year I will focus on another personal passion: Journaling.
I’ve taught a journaling class for a couple of years, which led me to write a non-fiction ebook about Journaling Towards Wholeness, which I plan to self-publish within the next two months. These blog posts will serve as an overview of that book.
While I may change these daily topics as I see fit, this is the current timeline of April’s blog posts. I will provide links as they become available.
Saturday, April 1: A is for A list of supplies
Monday, April 3: B is for Brainstorming
Tuesday, April 4: C is for Compass
Wednesday, April 5: D is for Develop a Routine
Thursday, April 6: E is for Expressive Journaling
Friday, April 7: F is for Five Year Diary

Thursday, April 27: W is for Wellness Wheel
Friday, April 28: X is for eXercise
Saturday, April 29: Y is for Yearly Word
Sunday, April 30: Z is for Zzzz (dreams)
There’s still time to participate – if interested. You don’t even have to have a theme. It is simply a great way to meet new people and develop a blogging routine.
I hope to see you back here on Saturday, April 1st. I’d love to connect with fellow journalers, or perhaps inspire some of you to give it a try.

What a wonderful theme! I don't journal, but it's something I've toyed with from time to time. Looking forward to learning more about it through your A to Z posts.

I bet you would be a great journaler! Don't worry so much about complete sentences, but rather, just getting the thoughts down on the page.

This is fantastic. I'm really looking forward to this as I have always been someone who is interested in journaling but have never really figured it out!
