A to Z Blog Challenge 2016: Theme Reveal – Life’s Choices/Life’s Changes

Since this is my first attempt at an A to Z blog challenge I decided to go with something that I’m quite familiar with, “Life”. At least my life. I’ve been writing since I was in elementary school. When I graduated college and became a teacher, I continued to write. I was considered a reflective practitioner, sharing my thoughts, expectations, anxieties and goals throughout my career. After I retired in 2006 I still found time to write. This blog is the collection of works continuing the theme of things I’ve done and things I’ve learned throughout my years as a student, teacher and storyteller. I will admit that some of the things that I’ve written about are fiction, but all are based on fact. So the challenge to myself is to take those events, continue to expound upon them and see what insights I can provide about myself, things I interact with, and life, what choices have been made and what changes have occurred to me and my world? I would guess that everyone does not share the same experiences or opinions that I do. Does everyone talk to animals as if they were people? Whether you do or you don’t enjoy the experience. We have more in common with each other than you think.

About hdh

I have been telling stories for over 40 years and writing forever. I am a retired teacher and storyteller. I hope to expand upon my repertoire and use this blog as a place to do writing. The main purpose is to give me and others that choose to comment, a space in which to play with issues that deal with storytelling, storytelling ideas, storytelling in education, reactions to events, and just plain fun stories. I explore some of my own writing throughout, from character analysis, to fictional, to poetry, and personal stories. I go wherever my muse sends me. Enjoy!

    I don’t talk to animals much, but I do talk to babies and tots as if they were people. I’ll be back to see you in April.

  6. Sounds like the perfect theme–and it gives you a lot of flexibility with your posts. Can’t wait to read!

  7. Sounds interesting. Looking forward to reading what you have to say.

  8. What a great theme idea, broad enough you can talk about lots of different things but still a definite theme to link it all together. good luck 🙂

    Sounds like an interesting theme. Blogs tend to be personal, even when we try not to be. It’ll be interesting to see what you pull together.

  10. It’s my first year with the a-z challenge as well and I’m excited to meet others in the blogging community. Good luck with your theme.

    As if? You mean…they’re not? Try telling that to my boys!
