Blogging From A to Z Challenge 2018 Theme Reveal

2018 A to Z Challenge
Welcome! Like many writers and readers, I'm fascinated by the ways in which mythology and legend have shaped our lives since the very first story was told around the very first campfire all those many years ago.

My 2018 A-to-Z Challenge will include characters and concepts from world mythology and legend. But don't look for vampires and werewolves and Greek Gods, because I'm going to dig deeper and throw some obscure stuff at you. Hopefully, we will all come away with interesting information just right for tossing into casual conversation or weaving into a poem or piece of fiction. 

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope to see you again during the month of April! (By the way, the Romans named this month Aprilis, which is thought to be from the Latin verb aperire, meaning "to open". Makes sense, as this is the month in the northern hemisphere when trees and flowers start to do exactly that.)

  1. Hi Jenny,
    I learned of your site when reviewing the master list for the A-Z blogging challenge. I look forward to reading your posts.

    I blog at https://profoundjourney.com. I too am a writer (of nonfiction). I love your 'about me' profile.

    My theme for the challenge is Snack-Sized Wow Notes for Women, Midlife and Beyond. I reply to every comment I receive. As a relatively new blogger ( about 1 1/2 years), I find that replying to comments increases engagement and builds community. I hope we'll connect.

    Have a great challenge.
