I’ve settled into a regular-ish blogging routine now, based around a handful of challenges that I enjoy, and that tolerate my continued wibbling. So, in an attempt to manage my own time as much as your fervent expectations (honestly, it’s like Beatlemania meets Biebermania every time I step out of my own front door), this is what you can expect each day, between now and April (when the poem-a-day blogging challenge kicks in, and I cry myself to sleep every day for failing to prepare despite having no excuse this year).
The BIG NEWS is that I have secured an exciting guest blogger to come and join me every Monday until April… See Yi-Oh will be sharing the benefits of his business nous (in haiku form, obviously) in a new series “The Two-Minute Manager“. I hope you’ll give him a warm welcome when he joins me tomorrow!
MONDAY – Limerick Challenge / The Two-Minute Manager
TUESDAY – Haiku Challenges – Ronovan & haiku horizons
WEDNESDAY – Secret Keeper’s Challenge
THURSDAY – Pop-Culture Thursday… the name needs work, but it’ll be something rhyme-y whyme-y, about something pop-culture-y
FRIDAY – The Great Book of Lists
WEEKENDS – no planned posts, unless for a specific challenge. I’ll be spending Saturdays entirely offline. Go and have some outdoor fun, people!
Plus there will be other bouts of randomness as and when inspiration strikes.
If there are any burning topics, ignored by better poets, that you think need covering in rhyme, let me know below the line 🙂

Thanks Ritu… I’ve never been very successful at sticking to a blogging plan, but you’ve gotta try, right?!

You do indeed! I must admit I tried, for a while, but life got in the way!
Now I know Monday is Ron’s Haiku Challenge, Tuesday, I have a Flash Fiction Challenge by the Book Blogger that I take part in, Friday is Ronovan’s Fiction challenge, then Sunday is my Spidey’s Serene Sunday slot… Anything over and above that, I don’t schedule… That is where my thoughts and creativity choose when to post!

Exactly! It’s not a race of any sort… but I pushed myself too much and it started feeling like a chore rather than a joy. Now I can enjoy other blogs as well as deal with my own 😊

Love your adoring fans! I’m the one with the grey sweater and tied back hair walking out of the frame close to the bottom left corner. Ha ha! Just having a bit of fun. I’ll be eyeing your blog daily to see how things are going. Good-luck with following your schedule.

I think that’s a very good schedule! Best of luck keeping it! I find it hard to keep schedules myself despite being drawn to the orderliness of them. 😀
