Completing the A-Z Challenge from Arlee at Tossing it Out
Today is Z - Z End!

If I have missed anyone in the challenge who's been a regular commentor, I apologize! And if you are following me because of the challenge but I've not followed you back, please let me know - I gained twenty followers in one week alone and I probably missed a few.
Thank you everyone, and a big thanks to Arlee!
And on that note - I am taking the weekend off! I'll be checking in now and then - it's a habit now - but my next post isn't until Monday morning.
Thanks for t he shout-out! I'm glad we had this opportunity to connect!

Hi Alex,
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading your book, this Fall! I hope it is a major
success! Thanks for visiting me and
all your interesting tidbits!
So many unique, wonderful writers in this group, it makes me want to give it a go. I have so much more respect for writers; I did anyway, but now seeing the other side of the coin! Thanks for sharing so much~
Thanks, Ellie - I'm thrilled you want to read CassaStar!
ReplyDeletePerhaps you should give it a try. Part of being a good writer is being a good reader as well.
Alex, it's really gratifying to see this list that you say came about due to the challenge--that is really cool! Of course a big credit goes to you for all of the commenting you constantly did. That was proof of how to gain new followers and make new blog friends. You made the system work and perhaps other will learn from your example.
ReplyDeleteGreat job in blogging from A to Z and now onward!

ReplyDeleteAlex you are great! A great poster, friend , follower, and commentor. Congrats on the challenge and I'll be keeping up with you. So it's not Z End. LOL
ReplyDeletethanks for the sci-fi shout out, I enjoyed getting to know you. I hope we still check eachother out, are you doing ARlee's music challenge?? do you take your own photography? I am having a photo challenge this month of my own, if you do.
ReplyDeleteLisa
Grammy, you know I will continue to visit your blog.
ReplyDeleteHagelrat, it was a bit nuts!
Thanks, Debra. It's not really the end.
Lisa, I will participate in the music challenge. Not a photographer, though. Thanks and I will continue to comment on your site.
Thanks for the shout out, Alex.
ReplyDeleteWas wonderful meeting you too, and will continue to follow you. Even during April, I did not comment as much as I could have done, so you may not get many comments from me. But ever post will be read!
Thanks for the mention :D I'm pretty sure it was through you that I heard about the blogging challenge, and so I thank you again. Can't wait to do it again!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Jamie. There will be so many people participating next time I'm sure.
