A to Z Challenge Theme Reveal

Hey everyone!

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!

    Considering 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.

    I 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. :)

    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.

    Your 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!

    A 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.

    J here, stopping by from the #atozchallenge - where I am part of Arlee Bird's A to Z Ambassador Team.
    Excellent 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.
