So the Challenge is lots of fun and excitement for those
who enjoy this business of blogging.
One of the best things about the Challenge is meeting new
people and finding cool blogs that are super-interesting. However, the only way
people will know you've visited is if you leave comments on their blogs. That
not only says that we've dropped in, but that we were engaged enough to
introduce ourselves.
There's no better way of fueling the gusto to continue visiting participants than to charge through a section of the list each day.

You'll find that by leaving meaningful comments, other
bloggers will gravitate to your blog. So it pays to put your energy into crafting
creative posts and making as many visits as you can, so you can power through
the Challenge with gusto!
Yeah with Gusto.. :) m loving reading so many different areas of writing.. thnx for bringing up this challenge. (Y)

I wish more people would learn to use the Hyperlink. I keep finding commenters on my blog and then trying to return the visit I am unable to locate their blog. Others have no way of adding yourself as a follower.

Loving the positivity! This challenge is awesome but it's also, well, challenging. It's nice to have the peptalk every morning. Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteLisa @ Zen and Pi // Come say hello :)
This is true. I have views, but no comments, so I don't know who the people are.
ReplyDeleteMy weekend plan is to visit a number of blogs. I've been encouraging my team at Girl Who Reads to visit blogs too. Some of them a new to blogging so I thought it would be good for them to see different styles and maybe they would get ideas for future posts.
ReplyDeleteSo true! Trying to tackle 5-10 new blogs on the list daily :)

The reading is super this year! :) First time commenters should leave their signatures or a link, makes it so much easier to connect.
ReplyDeleteGusto is a gorgeous G-word.

ReplyDeleteHi, her is my link for today. A wonderful day to all:)
Thanks for the lift! Gusto is needed for all phases of life!
ReplyDeleteMy gusto's a little saggy at the moment, but by noon I should be back up to speed.
ReplyDeleteE is for the word elope. She was going to meet her significant other to elope and to meet him on the roof of the hotel. Unfortunately he was late, and she met her demise at the hands of another. Police are still investigating.
ReplyDeleteThank you for mentioning this. I am glad someone said something. Your suggestion is also great. I take a part of the list everyday also and yet I see some blogs that do not have any comments. That is sad.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from the A to Z Blog Challenge.
Shalom,

its a wonderful challenge. Am already meeting nice people. www.wivesrepublic.wordpress.com
ReplyDeleteI always like finding blogs without any comments, so I can add some and make the blogger feel like the post weren't in vain. It's kind of disappointing to discover a great blog and want to leave a comment, only to see there's no way to leave comments.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first year participating in the challenge and I am having a great time. Love reading through the other blogs, just wish I had more time in the day to read more.

You are right. It is so gratifying to receive a comment. Even the shortest posts take a lot of effort. I've connected with several other bloggers and hope to meet more before the challenge is over.

ReplyDeleteLove knowing others are reading my posts and want to share their thoughts...

You're right, JLC! There is nothing like getting a comment! It is so encouraging. It's a rare time I would read a post and not leave a comment for the blogger, because I know how much work posts take and how much those comments mean to the blogger. Kudos to you for tackling the A to Z Challenge! What would life be without Gusto! Have a good one!
ReplyDeleteOh I love that word - 'gusto' it is so descriptive. I'm thoroughly enjoying my first A-Z Challenge and reading some wonderful blogs plus getting excited to receive positive comments. have a great day! Sue @Sizzling60 from
ReplyDeleteSizzling Towards Sixty
I'm doing 6 blogs off the sign up list each day, and 6-20 that I am following who are in the AtoZ. I almost always leave a comment, even when the entry leaves me wondering what to say. Once in a blue moon I stumble across something that offends my beliefs and I simply choose not to comment. I am having a blast! As usual.
ReplyDeleteRevisit the Tender Years with me during the #AtoZChallenge at Life & Faith in Caneyhead!
Yes, with such gusto! So far so good
