A-to-Z Challenge - Reflections

First of all I would like to extend a heartfelt thank to Shesha Chaturvedi to bring the challenge to my notice and help me at each step of it. Without this information I would have not been a recipient of get well soon wishes.Many of the fellow bloggers visited my blog and the comments from them kept me going despite being sick. I am much better today, although still not in shape to move out, but too better while recovering from Enteric Fever. It was arrested in the initial stage and did not convert into typhoid.

On thinking back, I learnt a lot about the world of blogging - and the mantra - visit other bloggers, comment if you feel like, do not be rude to a blogger ever (it hurts), be a positive critic, and network on social platforms.

More than anything, I learnt a lot about myself. So here are some things that I learnt about myself:

1. I can put together a case on short deadline, but not while I am having a headache
2. Blogging does not need all the time, but the time when you can just write
3.It may appear monotonous to the writer, but when one goes back to see all write-ups are different.
4. Post around fiction and/or humour works best
5. I managed to follow the theme of Emotions and Expressions.

  1. I love that you organized all your posts into an easy list! Way to go! I'm right there with you--posts that have a little humor are always best. Life gets so heavy. It's nice to be lifted a chuckle every now and then. =)

Thanks so much for stopping by my site earlier today, Shine - I took a cruise through some of your posts - very good, lots of fun, just the right length - I only wish I'd known of your site during the challenge! Most importantly, though, congrats on your finish, even with a temp of 102! You go!
