One of my new year’s resolutions for 2013 was to be more
active on my blog sites, and post decent quality, interesting articles on a
regular basis. So far I think it is working out fairly well, but I needed a
little help with inspiration for subject matter. We writers have a lot to say
but it often gets jumbled up in our minds, and we sometimes need a little help
to coax it out into a coherent format!
Anyway, I decided to join some blog hops. These are
organised events where people sign up to write about a particular topic, for
example, books and writing. A date is set, and we prepare our material. The
idea is that our blogs operate as a networking tool to get our message across
to a wider audience. People visit their favourite blogs, see the links for the
blog hops their writers have joined, and voila, they hop along to your site and
hopefully stick around for a while!
I got very ambitious and signed up on my personal blog for the April A-Z BlogHop challenge. During the month of April I have to write a post every day
(except Sundays), and each day you write about something relating to a letter
of the alphabet, in ascending order. I joined the category of books, because I
thought that would give me greater scope for the imagination.You can view the posts over at my Wordpress site, but I thought I would share the news here as well.
I have decided to write specifically about my Redcliffe
novels. Every day I will talk about a different aspect of the novels, be it
characters, location, settings, plot, or even the themes that crop up in the
stories. I hope it will be exciting and interesting, and that if you haven’t
yet read Love Hurts (A Redcliffe Novel), Love Kills (A RedcliffeNovel) or Love Redeems (A Redcliffe Novel), it will inspire you to
try them out… Enjoy!
