A to Z Blogs of the Week, and Belated Thanks!

I've made my way through more of the A to Z Bloggers list and, as expected, I came upon many more wonderful blogs. I'm happy to highlight three of them this week.

1) Cheekyness

I love the title of this blog, and Su writes about lots of interesting topics with a fun and "cheeky" style. From what I have seen so far, her blog is a great read.

2) Cheap Therapy

Another great title! I discovered "Project 52" on Cheap Therapy, and I think it is a really clever idea for goal-setting. I may have to do my own Project 52 next year.

3) Writers' Ally

Great blog title number 3. When I first saw the web address for S.A. Larsen's blog, I read it as "writer sally," and was expecting a writer named Sally. Instead, I found Sheri, and though she is taking a bit of a hiatus from blogging over the summer in order to focus on her writing, she and others created a Facebook group to support bloggers called Writers Support 4 U. I've joined, and I think it seems like a fantastic group.


So those are my blog hop highlights for this week. Shannon at The Warrior Muse has re-opened the submission link for the A to Z Visitors Blog Hop, so if you'd like to join, there's still time! I have a page at the top of my blog where you can add your link, or you can sign up at Shannon's page or at Life is Good.

Also, I want to send a very belated THANK YOU to two bloggers who were kind enough to give me blog awards in the past few weeks.

First off, the very sweet nutschell at The Writing Nut honored me with the Irresistibly Sweet Blog Award. Thank you, Nutschell!


And, the creative and talented Deirdra at A Storybook World gave me the Creative Blog Award. Thank you, Deirdra!







It's always a treat to get these awards, and I'm very grateful to both ladies!

  6. Congratulations on your awards (you have one more over at my blog waiting for you, too).

    I need to look up this Project 52, so will be clicking that link after I've commented. I saw it elsewhere and didn't think much of it, but now that you've mentioned it I am intrigued.

    Way to go on the A to Z progress!

  8. I think it is commendable to take the time to trawl through all the A-Z bloggers. I was crazy enough to visit them all in April which meant they only got a quick look in and I had to make very quick first impression judgements about following along. I should probably revisit, if only I had the time !

    @Ciara, thank you, I appreciate it. :)

    @Jules, thanks so much. I hope you enjoy the blogs if you get a chance to check them out.

    @Laura, thank you! LOL, it's crazy to think how quickly those nine months will go by too, it will be April again before we know it.

    @Samantha, thanks!

    @Shannon, oh, thanks, I'll be over to see, thank you very much!

    @Trisha, thank you!

    @RJR, wow, I'm amazed you were able to get through all the blogs in April! I tried, but didn't even come close. I hope now to be able to get there now, we'll see.

  12. Julie, Congratulations on the well deserved awards.

    I, too, like the A-Z Ticker - nice way to visually see how things are going.

    I will have to scoot over to your recommended sites - I have been a little behind on my own blog hopping from the challenge! Must get on it!

    Cheers, Jenny

    @Michelle, thank you!

    @Julie, thanks! LOL, I've always been so unorganized, I figured I had to try to change. I'm working on it at least. :D

  23. You're a fledgling writer, huh? Copy-and-paste everything you want off our blogs, girl. I so love you. Ya don't hear many who say so with such vigour and effusiveness, yet, I do. Why? Because I know EXACTLY where I'm going at the end of my weee, lifelong demise, miss gorgeous. Never mind what Fred Phelps sez, Heaven's where I'm going. Wanna come along? Guhroovy. Meet me in Heaven and we'll have gobbbs of fun at my BIG-ol, WooHoo! party-hardy celebrating our resurrection for eons and eons - I'm gonna kiss your adorable feet the first chance I get, doll, because they have brought you this far. And that's simply outstanding. God bless you. Love you.
