Well, we made it! I missed three days altogether but most of the posting was good. My final post is something I worked on for a couple of weeks so that I could post it. It's a minuscule part of my fiction "Death and Politics at the end of the world" but it also stimulated by some of the earlier posts I did not religion. Thanks for hosting once again, Amy!

Happy Halloween and Happy Pink Saturday!

Yipee! I didn't miss a day, but man, this last week was tough. It got me back in the blogging swing again, but I learned I'm not cut out to write everyday. I'll be back again next year though. I little pressure is good for me.

i totally agree with betts.

i did it everyday but the last week was difficult.

ill definitely do it again next year though. the challenge is fun.

Lisa said...

I did it every day, though there were at least two or three completely worthless posts (including my one-word post, "urp.")

I loved the challenge and I will definitely do it next year!

I missed writing quite a few days in October despite my best efforts. I learned that it's really, really hard to blog daily with an 8 month old and other family occurances...but I enjoyed it and hope I can try to do better with it next year.

I had a great time!

I did manage to get a post in every day, although I will freely admit that I was really scraping the bottom of the barrel there this last week or so.

Looking forward to trying it all again next year. But for now... a little vacation from the blog-o-sphere is definitely in order.

I had a lot of fun!! And I can't believe I actually pulled off posting everyday :-)

Now, if only I can reach the 50k for NaNoWriMo next month...

Thanks for putting this togethr you guys!

i had a lot of fun, trying different ways of blogging, and the best thing is improved my memory! As I had to remember to blog every single day! :D
Will definitely sign up again next year..

Aleta said...

I learned that anything and everything is blog fodder! And that it's fun to do this... will likely join again next year, but Ummm.... I'm not a "once a day" poster for sure.

Thanks so much for the inspiration and fun!

It's been a fun challenge; I plan to sign up and be "official" next year. :) I learned a lot and went out on creative limbs I wouldn't have explored without the incentive. Thanks for a great idea!!

Natasha said...

I had a great time. The best bit was getting to read a whole lot of new blogs, and having a whole lot of new visitors commenting on mine.
Will definitely be back next year!

Thanks for a rollicking time.

It was a different experience this year compared to last, and I suppose reader participation mattered more than just churning posts, however interesting or not I could make them. It's a shift in trend in bloggers mindset.
Either way, I did post and I believe I kept the interest going (bar weekends) - been a little stressful as I was sick for 3 weeks of the four.

..but most definitely writing everyday's an awesome learning experience.

I thought this was great. It was a little stressful a couple days when I was really stretching for a topic, but I think the comaraderie more than balanced that.

I didn't miss any days (success) and found a few blogs to follow from this point forward, so overall it was fabulous!

Thank you for taking this on and getting us organized!

I'm glad I participated, but I'm glad its over. I didn't manage 31 posts, but a hearty "Bravo" to everyone who did!

Jen Yu said...

I managed 31 posts because I'm OCD, but there were many times I hated myself for signing up for it :) Daily posting doesn't work well for my readership in general and it really messes with the way I like to schedule certain types of posts. But in all likelihood, I'll convince myself to do it again next year. In which case, I've asked Manisha to clobber me.
