For the blog challenge I'm decided to write 200 word stories or double drabbles, based on fantasy/supernatural creatures/places/things. This is probably pretty typical, but I'll try to pick interesting ones. ^_^

A to Z Challenge Theme Reveal
I've always tried to keep up with a blog and never quite seem to be able. I've decided to kick start Inkscribes with the a to z challenge.
The A to Z challenge is the best way to kickstart a blog or to give a blog a boost. Either way you're sure to meet lots of new friends and make a ton of connections. It's a lot of work so I like to get most of my posts written in advance. It doesn't help that my blog is on the fritz, but I've been assured the loading problem will be taken care of in time. Best of luck with the challenge and if you run into any problems there are so many great and friendly people here that will offer all kinds of support. This really is the greatest group of people I've ever encountered. See you in April.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. :)
DeleteI hope you're right! I think my problem was just not knowing what was I going to write about. A to Z at least gives me that. I'm kinda late to the bandwagon though, hopefully I can get a few of them written before April and Camp NaNo.
Thank again!
Yay Alyssa! I'm so glad you're doing this! Really looking forward to your double drabbles!
ReplyDeleteThanks! ^_^
DeleteLots of writers and wordsmiths out there, so I am sure your shorts will strike a chord with many! Welcome to the AtoZ!

Thanks, I hope so. :)
DeleteFollowed your blog, it sounds interesting!
I love the name of your blog!
ReplyDeleteSigning up for the A to Z Challenge is the perfect way to kickstart your blog. This is my 6th challenge and from experience, I can assure you that this is a great networking opportunity.
The first fictional piece I ever attempted was the drabble. I love the punchiness of this form. It's also an excellent way to practise lean, tight writing.
See you around on the A to Z Challenge circuit!

Thanks a lot! I'm glad people like the name. ^_^
DeleteSix challenges is amazing! I definitely hope to get into more and work (or crawl) my way into the bloggers community. A to Z definitely has a lot of people doing it and I can't wait to start reading all these wonderful blogs.
I wasn't normally a fan of short work. All my writing turned into trilogies and series. My experiment into shorter work was writing a -single- book that didn't escalate into something crazy. Then I joined a writers group that wrote 500 word stories and then moved to drabbles. I do love it, I love that each word needs thought (and while I say that's the same for a novel, it's not quite the same). I definitely agree with you and since I've started doing it I've had people comment on the change in my writing style. Hopefully for the better. ^_^
I look forward to reading your blog!
200 word stories sounds like a great theme for the A to Z Challenge.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck for the challenge.
P.S.- Loved your blog name :)

Thanks, Inkscribes has been a name I've had for a while now, years even, but just haven't managed to do anything with it. I know people usually tend to write the blogs before before hand, but I'm a little late to the game. I got a few done. Heh.
DeleteYour blog looks interesting and I look forward to reading it!
Welcome to the challenge! I look forward to reading your stories. It's a little bit how i started last year and ended up with a novel. Best of luck to you!

DeleteIs this a typical theme? It's new enough for me! Looking forward to it!
ReplyDeleteI thought maybe it was, but what do I know? I've never done this before. Heh. >.<
DeleteJeez, the perfect combination - fantasy and flash fiction! ^^ Absolutely looking forward to your posts!

Thanks! I feel I might need it? I might have 1 week's worth of blogs in cache, so I should be okay. XD
DeleteCan't wait! Good luck. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteThanks! And no problem, you too. ^_^
DeleteGreat theme. Looking forward to reading your stories. I'm writing about women in the 1930s. Hope you'll stop by.

I'm really hesitant to write about historical things. Fear of getting things wrong I think. So you're blog comes off as really intriguing to me. Can't wait to read it. ^_^
