A to Z Challenge Reflections

A big thank you to my readers who followed me during this challenge and read about my heroes.  I bet that now you know me a little more. For some reason this year the challenge it wasn't as hard as before... I discover some new blogs and follow some more and a few more are following my blog. The most hilarious theme I came across during the challenge was '26 ways to die in medieval Hungry' by MopDog. I absolutely loved it!
During the challenge three hundred eleven comments brighten my day and I have a surprise gift for the top commenter, actually two of them - Jo who can't think of a clever nickname faithfully commented every single post during the challenge (27 comments) and Bea (25 comments). Thank you ladies.

So long my friends,
Evalina

  1. Your A-Z posts were all very interesting to say the least. Some were funny, some were serious but always worth reading.

  2. Oh wow! I must admit the A-Z challenge does fill me with trepidation because I know my Reader is going to be full for the entire month!
    I always enjoy the posts though and this year was no exception. I think your choice was your best yet. I really learned a lot about you and the people you chose. Some obvious ones and some surprises, pleasant ones like my local girl Boudica.
    Still working on the seating plan for the celebratory dinner! Not sure how well Maggie and Napoleon will get on sitting next to each other...

  10. I'm sorry I didn't visit during the challenge. Have found you through your reflection. It is an amazing experience isn't it. This was my 3rd year, and I do think all the blogs I've helped me learn what works and what doesn't. My reflection has some opinions about that. In reading about you, I marveled at all the places/travel you have done, which I know you now bring to writing your posts. Congratulations on finishing. Thinking of you with your feet up, cross stitch in hand, happy to have completed the challenge.
