Today, I'm just doing a quick stop to take part in the A to Z Challenge Theme Reveal.
The rules are simple. If you're taking part in the A to Z Challenge, sign up here.
Then on your blog, do a post to announce the theme you'll be following this year.
As for my theme... Well. I know usually I post about writing or editing, but this year I'll be up to my neck in pre-release activities. For those of you who are new to my blog, I'm releasing a book on 30 April.
So. To remain sane and to give people a few glimpses into the book, I thought I'd do this:
In other words, I'll be sharing A to Z related snippets every day along with a short intro.
Quick and simple, yes. Which means I'll be able to visit more of you. Which is good, since I'm also part of this:
Welcome to anyone new who's stopping by! Let me know what you think of the theme!
Sounds interesting. Great way to get to know your book. Cool.
ReplyDeleteConsidering you'll be working toward a release, I say it's the perfect A to Z theme. Like Jamie said, it's a great way for readers to get to know your book.
ReplyDeleteSmart theme! I included bits about Dragon of the Stars last year for my theme.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I'm doing the same thing with Murder & Obsession. I've been told book blog tours don't carry any weight, gosh first it was FB is useless, don't discuss your book on twitter and now book blog tours are out. I don't get it, but damn, I'm talking about Alaska and my latest regardless. Besides it's my favorite topic. :)
ReplyDeleteI think that's a great way to get people excited about your new book. I'm looking forward to reading the snippets next month. Cheers - Ellen | thecynicalsailor.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThat's a smart theme which serves dual purpose! Good luck for your book, Misha and the April challenge too! Cheers ♥
ReplyDeleteAwesome theme leading into the release. Best of luck with both A-Z and the book.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes.

I remember your blog from last year. It is thrilling that you are keeping your five year plan. I'm sure it has had its twists and turns. Congratulations on the release of your book. I look forward to catching up on your blog.
ReplyDeletePromoting your book through the AtoZ, that's a great idea!
ReplyDeleteHave a lot of fun... a gather a lot of new readers in April!

That sounds like a two fold theme, giving us insight to the book and participating in the A-Z all at the same time. Can't wait.
ReplyDeleteYour goal to make $7,000 or so a month is close to my goal of $5,000 a month within the next 5 years. Anyway, good luck with your A to Z posts!

Misha, great way to help promote your upcoming release. Good luck with everything!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great way to build hype for your book.
ReplyDeleteHi Misha - that's excellent and so appropriate bearing in mind your release is the 30th April ... enjoy the A-Z and exposure your new book will get along the way ...
ReplyDeleteCheers Hilary
That sounds a great way to give us a sneak peak into the book. Wonderful! :) all the best!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great theme since it will be leading up to the release! Looking forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteIt's cool that you want to share your book.
ReplyDeleteGreat theme! It's different for every author, so it's kind of neat to get a look into someone else's process.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to play in the challenge. I look forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're really busy. I'm glad you had a chance to work the challenge into your business.
ReplyDeleteLoved the banner with Counting Down to Endless! Lovely.
ReplyDeleteHere's to a great AtoZ this year.
What a gorgeous cover! Great idea for a theme.
ReplyDeleteI think the A to Z challenge is a great way to get to know so many new bloggers... I couldn't participate though, I barely have time to write once a week... Good luck Misha xox
ReplyDeleteYay!! We'll help you countdown to the launch with coffee & wine and witty banter!!
ReplyDeleteA great decision for your theme. I wrote about the settings in a newly released novel last year. I enjoyed writing the posts and hopefully people enjoyed the read. I can't say that I SOLD books as a result, but the posts were interesting in and of themselves. Good luck with followers in 2016.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great way to tackle the challenge! Easy and a great way to promote your book!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea about posting the snippets and I look forward to reading them.
ReplyDeleteAll the best with everything goes with finally getting a book out so that others may read it.
Shalom,
Pat
What a great mix of the Challenge and your book release. You must be so excited. I can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteGreat theme! Can't wait to read more about your book :)!

ReplyDeleteJ here, stopping by from the #atozchallenge - where I am part of Arlee Bird's A to Z Ambassador Team.
ReplyDeleteExcellent choice for an A to Z challenge theme. Good job. My theme is the craft of fiction writing. Tips, lessons, and prompts from various writing reference books. I follow it up with a sample of my work.
Your theme is great. I'm looking forward to seeing even more of it on my blog! :) ;)
April should be exciting. I'm looking forward to the event. Best of luck to us both on meeting our goals of posting and hopping to other blogs.
My blog has a giveaway. There's a bonus a to z challenge each day to encourage people to visit more stops.
