A to Z Challenge Blogging

Hi everyone. I'll be Blogging from A to Z for the first time. It's for the entire month of April, except for Sundays, but I'm excited to get some blogging in every day and read what so many others have to say. This is only the second kind of blog challenge I've participated in, so I'm anxious to get going. I participated in Gearing Up To Get An Agent (GUTGAA) a few years ago, and honestly, I follow and communicate (through Twitter mostly) with these friends more than any other online friends I've encountered. That being said, I'm encouraged with this new challenge for me.

So stay tuned for daily posts, with each post relating to a letter in the alphabet; a to z. The first letter (A) post will happen on Friday!!
