Yeomanly #AtoZChallenge 2025

#AtoZChallenge 2025 letter Y #AtoZChallenge 2025


Yeomanly - Characterized by hard work and dedication, especially when supporting others.

Did you do what it takes to complete the challenge? Create 26 blog posts inspired by the English alphabet in April? Supported the blogs of fellow participants with positive comments? Have you been working hard and dedicating yourself to winning the challenge? Were you diligent, even when the challenge was difficult? 

Thank you for being here. Hopefully, this blog hop has sparked joy! 

As the #AtoZChallenge 2025 nears its conclusion, here are some questions to inspire your Reflections post. (Reflections is an optional third blog hop in which we take time to look back on the #AtoZChallenge 2025 to gain perspective so that we can learn from our experience and, hopefully, feel grateful that we took part.)
  • Has the #AtoZChallenge 2025 helped you to feel like a successful blogger? 
  • Did you support other #AtoZChallenge 2025 bloggers?
  • Is the #AtoZChallenge neighborhood blogging community good for your mental health?

Well then...

#AtoZChallenge 2025 letter W #AtoZChallenge 2025


Well, the 2025 Blogging from A to Z April Challenge is rapidly coming to a close, and will soon be little more than a pleasant memory for all of us. I hope you've had fun. I hope you found a few new blogs for your reading pleasure. I hope that some of you discovered the joy of daily blogging and might consider trying it in the future. I've been blogging daily since July 2014, and don't foresee a time when I don't. And most of all, I hope you'll plan on joining us next year, same Bat-time, same Bat-channel, for the 2026 Blogging from A to Z April Challenge!

Farewell, Godspeed, Keep On Blogging, and as I always say, see you in the funny papers!

John Holton

Unique #AtoZChallenge2025


Our team theme this year is our blogging community, gratitude, or being grateful for our blogging community.

Today, we are grateful for things that make us unique. What are the things in your blogging career, in your writing, in your interests, that are unique to you? What are the unique things you are grateful for in your life - things that make it more interesting, more engaging, more curious? There is strength in community, and strength in shared interest. But there is also strength in everyone bringing something new to the table. 

What is your unique thing? How did you find it, or how did it find you?

Treating others as they'd like to be treated #AtoZChallenge 2025

#AtoZChallenge 2025 letter T #AtoZChallenge 2025


"Treating others as they'd like to be treated" (Sleeping In - Song by The Postal Service)

Have you been treating your fellow AtoZChallenge bloggers as you'd like to be treated? Have you commented, shared, and liked posts? Have you respected the time they carved out to participate in this blog hop? 

Do you feel as though others have reciprocated? Are you being treated as you'd like on your blog? Has the A to Z team supported you and this community well enough this year? 

I'm grateful to everyone who is taking part. I'm grateful this hop exists and creates opportunities for online social engagement. I volunteer my time as A to Z team captain because I genuinely care.

S is for Sensational! #AtoZChallenge2025

#AtoZChallenge 2025


S is for Sensational 

I am so grateful for the sensational blogs that have taken part in our humble blog challenge! It is lovely to learn so much and to see folks who are so devoted to their writing. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing people who are excited about something. So many of the blogs here are sensational, and I am grateful for everyone who has shared a piece of themselves with us!

What is the favorite blog post you've read this month that wasn't your own!?

R for Ready!

#AtoZChallenge 2025 letter R #AtoZChallenge 2025


With the A to Z Challenge, there are two times to get yourself ready. The obvious one is before it starts. The less obvious one is after it ends. Now is the time to get ready for May 1, the day after it ends.

What am I talking about?

  • For one thing, you'll want to figure out which new blogs you're going to follow and set them up in your feed reader, or subscribe to their blog by email.
  • You'll also want to start planning your Reflections post: How you did with your posts, how you did reading other posts, how well you handled comments, and one or two outstanding blogs you read during the Challenge.
  • And, you might want to give some thought to the blogs you didn't have a chance to read, which might lead you to consider the A to Z Road Trip. Details on that to follow.

Enjoy the rest of the Challenge!

Q for Quality

#AtoZChallenge 2025 letter Q #AtoZChallenge 2025


One thing I've noticed, not just this year but in years past, is the quality of the posts for this blog hop. Maybe because everyone wants to impress the others, maybe because participants spend a lot of time before April 1 preparing their posts for the month, maybe it's the work people put into developing their themes, or maybe it's just because this is one heck of a fun blog hop. I've often said that the A to Z Challenge is the highlight of my blogging year, not just because of what I write, but because of what I read. This year has been another great year for that reason.

I don't know about you, but I'm already looking forward to next year. And you're the reason. Thank you!

Perfection #AtoZChallenge2025


Our team theme this year is our blogging community, gratitude, or being grateful for our blogging community.

In the online world, there is immense pressure on everyone to be perfect. To be the best, the most visible, the most engaging, the most liked. With more and more social media platforms competing for attention, it often feels impossible to stand out in a crowd, to create and share something we are passionate about without feeling inadequate, unheard. Challenges like A to Z are not only challenges - they are also a chance to have a community that pays attention. Visits, comments, and says I am curious about what you have to say, I am here, I hear you.

Today's letter is a reminder that perfection is not what will make you worthy of attention. And feeling like you are drowned out doesn't mean what you do is not important. Perfection is pressure. Find your people, and your community will help you accept the imperfections!
