Seven years, the Blogging from A to Z April challenge has happened. Seven years, I’ve participated. 5 years, I’ve completed the challenge. For those new to the challenge, this is where we write on themes around the 26 alphabets. So the theme on April 1st would be something with A, and the theme on April 30th would be something with Z (except for four Sundays, which don’t have challenge posts). You can go here if you want to know more about what the challenge is.
For some reason, I’m feeling quite happy today. Maybe it’s because of that, or maybe I’m feeling a rush after morning coffee, I’ve decided to go ahead and double my challenge. Yeah, I know. I’ve gone bonkers. But hopefully, it’ll turn out okay. So, in addition to the Harry Potter theme A to Z, I’ll be doing this one.
The theme is called ON SHORT NOTICE. What will I be writing? I do not know. Why? Because I’ll (hopefully) get a topic on short notice. On the previous day. On the post for A, I will ask you, the reader, to suggest a topic with the theme B. Anything is okay. From the topics, I’ll choose one, and write on that. Similarly, I’ll proceed, writing on the day for a particular letter. The post might be a poem, a fiction or even a ramble. I don’t know where my muse will lead me. I’ll be as surprised as you on the day.
So, I’ll keep an exception for A, and ask you, on this theme reveal, to suggest ONE TOPIC with the theme A for me to write a piece on, on April the 1st. 🙂 If you want to, you can specify what kind of writing (poem, fiction or ramble) you might like to see for that topic too. Though I’m not promising I’ll keep to that kind of writing. Hoping for some nice topics, and a doubly fun, double trouble April with you…

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
That’s a quite unique theme… i too had thought whether to have any theme or not.. and on short notice a theme came to my mind.. 🙂 glad ..

Good for you, and I hope you have fun, Pratikshya. 😀
very clever! That’s how most of my posts will be this year..on short notice!!
Shubhangi @ The Little Princess
that’s okay 🙂 still will be fun, Titli. 😀
You’re one nutcase. 😀 in a good way of course 🙂
A for Acrobat?
Nuttiness reduced slightly. 🙂 Nice word, but I chose something else for A, Ishi.
so you are making it Blogging every day – real time while mere mortals like us are going crazy about preparing, writing, scheduling and the entire paraphernalia. But I love it that you will do everything on real time and on short notice. Kudos to you. All the best, will look forward.

Yeah. Kind of fun, no? 🙂 But I’d have liked to do the double. Maybe might. 😀 Thanks, Tina.
Now this is a good way to go about it. I look forward to seeing what happens.
Me too, John. 😀
I’ve got first 5 posts ready. So maybe, I’ll stay ahead of the game this time. Let’s see.
How about A for Admire? People you admire? I’d love to read personal posts from you for a change. 😀

It’ll be a personal post for A, but not about Admire. 🙂 Thank you for the suggestion, though, Kaddu.
This is such an interesting theme! Like the actual challenge wasn’t challenging enough, you have set your bars high!! Fabulous!
A for Avid maybe?

Avid, another fabulous word. 🙂 Hope to see you again with a suggestion. I’m going with another word for A. Thanks, Madhumita.
You are a real veteran! Good to see you back for another round.
My A suggestion is “Anarchy” written as a bit of a ramble (naturally).
Have a great April Challenge in 2017!
Anarchy doesn’t quite inspire, though the word suits a ramble for sure, Lee. 🙂
Happy to be back for another round. 😀 Thanks for the challenge.
My suggestion would be “A for Alliance”
Interesting idea and looking forward to reading the posts.
Nice suggestion. 🙂 I think I have just the post for it. I choose this. 😀
Thanks, Janie. Hope you enjoy the post.
This is something very unique I came across by now! Good Luck!
