This is the 2013 A to Z Challenge Reflection post. It's another way to visit more participants and see what everyone thought of the Challenge. Sign up on the linky list and let everyone know what your experiences were last month.
One of my favorite blogs to visit is Heather M. Gardner's. Her theme was Stormy the Weather Gnome's bucket list. It was hilarious! She also recently signed a contract to have her book, MAGUIRE'S CORNER published! Congratulations, Heather. On the final day of the Challenge, Heather bestowed upon me the Zombie Rabbit Award. I get to pass on this magnificent award to my ten favorite blogs from the Challenge. Thank you, Heather, and thank you to the ten bloggers who entertained me during April with your awesome posts.
1) Nick Wilford - wrote an amazing story about an angel with words supplied each day by his readers.
2) M. Pepper Langlinais - had intriguing snippets of her characters Peter and Charles (from her book St. Peter in Chains) traveling the world and looking for a place to settle down.
3) Elise Fallson - an A to Z of "ology" words. People study and collect the strangest things.
4) Lily - follows Spawn's descent into madness with his plans for world domination. Hilarious!
5) Sandy - excellent traveling tips and sharing her adventures.
6) Julie Flanders - her theme was Alaska inspired by her book Polar. I've always wanted to go there!
7) Mark Means - a whole month of obscure comic book characters. Even my geekery was put to the test!
8) Al Diaz - a tour of his magnificent dragon's cave and dwarf cheerleaders.
9) Shannon Lawrence - an A to Z of history's mysteries. Absolutely fascinating. Just up my alley.
10) Mina Lobo - an enthralling A to Z of aphrodisiacs. I learned so much. Made notes!
Yay you for surviving the A-to-Z challenge! I loved checking the snippets on your blog during it. So fun! Also, congrats on the Zombie Rabbit Award! Can't help but love the name of that...

I loved your theme and couldn't wait to read what happened next. I enjoy your writing very much. I'm looking forward to reading all about the witch and the vampire.
I'm excited and terrified about being published this month. I've learned a lot from watching all you guys go before me.
Thank you again, Christine.
