October Blog Ahead Challenge

Anna at Herding Cats & Burning Soup is once again hosting her Blog Ahead challenge and this time she's joined by Kimberly at Caffeinated Book Reviewer. The idea is to write and schedule posts ahead of time and have a cushion. The goal is 31 posts, scheduled for November onward.

Any blogger or author can join and pretty much any posts counts: memes, reviews, discussions, guest posts, cooking posts, etc. The posts do not have to be book related.

Want to join in? Go here and sign up.

I don't know if I can actually get 31 posts written but I'll try. I want to do 8 Cat Thursday posts, 2 Waiting on Wednesday posts, 2 Soapy Saturday posts, and a mix of reviews and discussion for the rest. I track all of my challenges in a monthly wrap up post and I'll try to remember to also track them in my weekly Sunday Share post.

Come join the fun and get ahead on your blogging!

Blog Ahead Challenge!

Why yes, that is another challenge picture; why yes, I'm doing another challenge; why yes, I'm nuts. You should know that by now.  :P

This one is practical - get ahead on blogging  by writing and scheduling posts ahead of time. I'm much better at that these these days. A year ago, I rarely scheduled posts ahead, waiting until the last minute. When I first started blogging, it took me months to figure out how to schedule a post. While I still procrastinate on many posts, I do it less often as life is just too busy these days. So this challenge is perfect while not too easy - getting 30 posts done will keep me busy but the end result will be well worth it. At the moment I have 8 posts scheduled and about 5 in drafts (not including some that are permanently in drafts such as templates). :D
