A to Z Blogging Challenge: Theme Reveal
Is it already almost April? This year is zooming by!
April, among other things, is the A to Z blogging challenge, which asks bloggers to post 26 entries in April (one for each day, minus Sundays) corresponding to the letters of the alphabet. This is the most fun, in my opinion, when people choose a theme to explore.
In past years, I've done:
2018: Poetry! posts about some of my favorite poets.
2017: Places in my Heart
2016: Superheroes
2015: My Publishing Journey
2014: Evocative Words
All of these have been a lot of fun to write, and participating has built my circle of friends, readers, and colleagues. So, of course I'm back to play along again, here in year 10.
So, what are we up to this year? I'm writing letters to dead writers. There are a lot of writers who have been important to me across my life and it's too late to meet some of them in person, but it's not too late to express my love and appreciation.
My planned list of writers (subject to change due to inspiration) includes:
A: LOUISA MAY ALCOTTB: CHARLOTTE BRONTEC: PATRICIA CLAPPD: DAPHNE DU MAURIERE: EMILY DICKINSONF: ANNE FRANKG: GWENDOLYN BROOKSH: LORAINE HAINSBURYI: LAURA INGALLS WILDERJ: JANE AUSTENK: HELEN KELLERL: MADELEINE L’ENGLEM: MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT SHELLEYN: ANAIS NINO: OCTAVIA BUTLERP: DOROTHY PARKERQ: QUEEN OF CRIME FICTION, AGATHA CHRISTIER: JEAN RHYSS: SHIRLEY JACKSONT: SOJOURNER TRUTHU: URSULA LE GUINV: VIRGINIA WOOLFW: EDITH WHARTONX: ANNE SEXTONY: EMPRESS YAMATOZ: ZORA NEALE HURSTON
See any favorites in that list? Did you think of some you're surprised I didn't choose? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
