Which, truth be told, I do anyway - so this is an added bit of writing that really does help me with my “other” writing.<br /><br />It will change you - guaranteed - for the better. <br /><br />I did my first challenge in 2011, signing up at the 12th hour (April 1st) and winged it… I had, without a doubt, some of my best posts. I loved it.<br /><br />Then, in 2012, I had the pleasure of co-hosting and was obliged to have posts ready well in advance. (collecting that virtual dust you speak of) I really enjoyed my role as co-host but did not enjoy my posting experience near as much as when I winged it.<br /><br />So… this year, I winged it again - had the best time ever! <br /><br />Now, regarding “the list” you can always copy and paste it in a word document (my trick) and visit at your leisure. I keep my copy on my desktop and as the mood moves me I pop by and say my hellos.<br /><br />This year, due to serious time constraints, I am starting my visiting (in earnest) with the Reflections list. It’s smaller and doable! :) Okay, call me lazy - but time is time… <br /><br />Have fun with your connections and with your writing. <br /><br />Cheers, Jenny @ <a href="http://pearsonreport.ca" rel="nofollow">PEARSON REPORT</a> Pearson Reporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05422640826640133140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575209851731621303.post-31911533687900136092013-05-09T07:51:05.450-04:002013-05-09T07:51:05.450-04:00I haven't yet picked out a theme THAT far in a...I haven't yet picked out a theme THAT far in advance ;) Sometimes I've been known to decide 6 months in advance what I'll be working on during NaNo, but that's about as far as I go with pre-planning. ;)<br /><br />Nice to meet you through the A to Z (though I'm fairly sure I only met you on this post, not the rest of the A to Z - you're right, it was a huuuge list!).Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575209851731621303.post-25860843769732995762013-05-07T00:51:57.330-04:002013-05-07T00:51:57.330-04:00Great reflection post.

Like you I was basically writing as I went (not my plan) and I was quite a charge of writing energy. There are pluses to be found no matter which way you go.<br /><br />Thanks for joining us in the 2013 Challenge!<br /><br />Lee <br />An A to Z Co-Host <br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a><br />Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575209851731621303.post-8618561753165812092013-05-04T13:58:00.574-04:002013-05-04T13:58:00.574-04:00I like being pushed to write every day outside of ...I like being pushed to write every day outside of what I'm already writing.

This was my third year but the first time I chose a theme (featuring an author each day). It was much easier planning and writing my posts ahead of time with a theme. I'm already thinking about what my theme should be next year!!<br /><br />Happy reading and writing! from <a href="http://lauramarcella.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Laura Marcella @ Wavy Lines</a>Laura S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13934230198562773803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575209851731621303.post-40647529092424210762013-05-03T12:41:27.144-04:002013-05-03T12:41:27.144-04:00However we do the challenge it is a great achievem...However we do the challenge it is a great achievement to see it through.

That's how you polish your writing skills. I've noticed that when I write every day, it comes more easily to me than if it does if I stop for awhile.<br /><br />And yes, the list should be up until A-Z sign ups start for 2014, which should be around the end of January. At least that's the way it worked for the 2012 list. Thanks for linking to my blog, by the way!L.G.
