I'm baaaaaaack!
A lifetime ago (or so it seems), I used to have a personal blog. I wrote 3-5 times a week, except in April. During April, I took part in the A to Z blogging challenge. Mostly I would write about something random and everyday and try to find a relevant word to associate with it so I could claim it fit the A to Z theme. Sometimes I wrote about certain songs starting with each letter. In fact, that's what I did in April 2021, right at lightningflashwriting.blogspot.com. I made a playlist of songs from A to Z and wrote a flash piece for each day (excluding Sundays).
After a year of feeling like I've put flash fiction on the back burner, I'm eager to dive back in, and thought it would be fun to have the A to Z challenge holding me accountable once more. This year, I'm choosing random words from the dictionary. But not just any dictionary... a Roald Dahl children's dictionary!
I'm hoping the author's whimsy will help me push myself out of the daily routine and stress of *gestures wildly* and give me space to just have fun writing for a month.
Here goes nothing...
What fun! And welcome back! I hope you still enjoy it as much as you used to! I only did the challenge once before and that was back in 2013....this year, I'm doing it again though!

I did it in 2011 on my personal blog (not online anymore) and then tried again in 2012 or 2013 and couldn't make it through! But 2021 went well, so I have high hopes for this month and can't wait to read yours!
DeleteSounds like a fun theme!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm hoping I can stick with it!
