A to Z Blogging Challenge 2013

The time has come, folks (actually, the time already passed, if you know the other co-hosts). Today I am announcing the co-hosts for the 2013 A to Z Blogging Challenge.

This is the fourth year the challenge has taken place, but only the second year I've been involved. Sometimes it can seem like a lot of work, but it really is the biggest thing in blogging, and it is the absolute best way to meet new bloggers, and gain followers.

Anyway, the sign-up list isn't open or anything yet, we just want to announce the list of co-hosts, because we've added a couple of awesome bloggers this year. Please double check and make sure you follow all of us:

Arlee Bird at Tossing It Out
Damyanti Biswas at Amlokiblogs
Alex J. Cavanaugh at Alex J. Cavanaugh
Tina Downey at Life is Good
DL Hammons at Cruising Altitude 2.0
Jeremy Hawkins at Retro-Zombie
Shannon Lawrence at The Warrior Muse
Konstanz Silverbow at No Thought 2 Small
Stephen Tremp at Breakthrough Blogs
Livia Peterson at Leave it to Livia
L. Diane Wolfe at Spunk on a Stick
Nicole at The Madlab Post
and of course, me, but you're already here

Well, that is all. Happy Friday, and I hope we all have a wonderful, relaxing weekend!

I thought we weren't supposed to announce this until Monday - that's when I have mine set.

ROFL You and Alex sound like a married couple. Sounds like you two need to work on the communication skills.

Since I'm now reducing the number of days I blog each week, I won't be signing up for this one. But I will check out the posts. I enjoying seeing all the themes people come up with.

Alex's comment just made me laugh!!

Can't wait for this year's posts.

Slamdunk said...

Rut roh for you Matthew. Looks like you have a great lineup.

Pat Hatt said...

Will be there to join in, as I already have all 30 posts done at my bin hahaha

Working on a little surprise too, that by the end of next week should come due.

mooderino said...

LOL, Alex.
And I must say, what a fine group of co-hosts! This year is going to rock. I still haven't figured out what I'm going to do for A-Z but it'll be crazy fun. (:

Thaks for 'jumping the gun' maybe. Like everyone else I'm smiling. Looks like an awesome lineup. Don't think I'm gonna do it, but I'll be lurking and reading everybody else's posts.

Tonja said...

Sounds like a great list. When does the signup start? I wasn't going to do it but had an epiphany while reading your post. I'm in.

Sarah Ahiers said...

I don't think i'll do it this year, either. Blogging 3x a week is good enough for me. Lets me fit in more writing

A Daft Scots Lass said...

Where do we sign up?

DL Hammons said...

Alex is right Matt, I don't think we were supposed to announce until Monday...but what the heck! Looking forward to another year of getting those creative juices flowing!! :)

Arlee Bird said...

Sneak preview of Monday's A to Z Post, but that's okay, I always used to love the sneak previews they used to show in movie theaters. Do they still do that anymore?

Anyway, I think we have a real powerhouse team this year. Thank you for being a part of it.

Alex is funny!

So many co-hosts! I know almost all of them. Not sure if I'm gonna do it this year. I'd like to, but this marketing crap is time-consuming. Guess I'll sign up and see.

Brinda said...

Happy Friday to you, too.

Nick Wilford said...

I'm definitely in. Had a blast and met some of my best friends there last year.

I follow all the hosts except possibly Nicole. Off to check that.

Jemi Fraser said...

You've got a great group! :)

Botanist said...

Uh-oh, the lure of the challenge. After last year I said "never again," but the siren call is starting already...

Kelly Robinson said...

This has become so huge. I can't believe you have so many co-hosts!

Tina said...

Great intro, Matt. I agree with Lee, previews are great! Now I'm motivated to finish my post.
