2021 A to Z Blogging Challenge Reveal

2021 A to Z Blogging Challenge Reveal

This is my 6th year doing the A to Z Blogging Challenge. In the past, I’ve done “Life Changes, Life’s Choices”, “What ifs?”, “Attitudes and Gratitudes”, “Whiplash (a collection of random thoughts)”, and an “A to Z Google Images alphabet book”. I’ve had a lot of fun exploring the different facets of my writing ability – memoir pieces, research-based non-fiction pieces, poetry, and fictional writing. Last year, some of those pieces continued through multiple letters of the A to Z Challenge to complete one story.  This year, I will continue to explore all of those genres. 

My theme for this year is Wishes, Lies, and Dreams. Whether it’s about when I invented a time-saving device that allowed me to accomplish multiple tasks simultaneously, like completing all of my A to Z Blog challenge writings for the next 3 years…today, or that recurrent dream someone had about flying, or that wish I had for a cure for the common cold which involved a lot of chocolate, it’s sure to be a lot of fun reading. 

This year will be a little different than in the past. In the past, I’ve asked for suggestions from students that I taught while substitute teaching in an elementary/middle school for ideas for each letter to help me decide what to write about. Due to COVID concerns, I’m not working with students this year, so I am putting it out to all of you, the readers of this blog, to give me your thoughts about wishes, lies, and dreams you might have had or want me to write about. Just click on the link below and add whatever ideas you come up with. Put a comma after your entry, so that others can add more ideas. Please note that my writing is not adult-rated only material and may also be read by kids, so keep your ideas appropriate, or else I will shut down all input.

For me right now, it’s time to get writing and prepare for the April Challenge. See you all on April 1st. Let the stories begin.

 

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!

    Good luck with your theme. I must have a think of some suggestions for you.

  2. Edith Colaneri says:

    I wish that there be no more strife in the world, that all according to their ability could work and have enough funds to have a roof over their heads, food on the table.

    I wish that we could help others, be kind to one another and have compassion.
    I wish the the leaders the people elected be honest and truthful and work to make this a better place.
    I wish that people follow rules and if we don’t like them work to have them changed
    Some people will tell the truth that might hurt some ones feeling, yes, truth sometimes hurts but it might help to make that person aware and change their ways.
    I don’t wish anything for myself. If you want a big house, diamonds, fancy cars, I don’t care. You work for it, so do whatever you want with your money.

    I like your theme. I’ve been having so many vivid dreams since the pandemic. It’s been interesting.

  4. Wishes, lies, and dreams – love it! Looking forward to your posts. And it was fun adding a suggestion to your list.

    I always like more ideas.

  9. Ooh, this immediately made me think of the never-ending pasta pot story, and how I always wanted one of those as a kid. Maybe as an adult I would prefer a never-ending coffee pot, though! ;D

    Good luck on your A to Z Challenge, and if you need some romantic ideas, check out my blog for Romance from A to Z.
