Challenges and Failures

I am feeling like a writing failure. I sign up for challenges meant to help prompt me to write, but can't seem to complete even the simplest of challenges where I can choose my own theme. In March, there was the Fearless Females Challenge and in April, there was the A to Z Blogging Challenge. I had every intention of doing all of the writing required for both of them, but it just didn't happen. Time and circumstances kept me from being able to focus on these generally fun challenges.

Although the time is past for these challenges, it is my hope to still finish them out. Thankfully, Blogger allows date changing so that I can fit the posts into the slots they should have gone into to start with. I will find a way to finish both the Fearless Females and A to Z Blogging Challenges. I will create a separate page for each of them. I've already created the A to Z Blogging Challenge page. You can get to it in the tabs at the top of this page. As I write the posts, there will be a link to them on their respective pages.

This blog is a personal blog and therefore should be fun, not guilt-ridden because I didn't see a challenge through to the end during its allotted time. I will do it in my own time, in a relaxed manner, and maybe it will be a benefit to you and to me this way.

Thank you all for your faithfulness in visiting and commenting on PS Annie!

      Thank you, Yvonne. My husband says that I'm my own worst critic. Maybe I am, but I wish that I could make it through at least one challenge uninterrupted. Thank you for the encouragement.

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Have a great week!

    I find all too often blogging comes with guilt! It's not supposed to be this way:) It's your space, so do things in your own time. I think you will find most bloggers are a pretty welcoming and warm group.

      Thank you for the pep talk, Stephanie. :) I appreciate it very much. You're right, the vast majority of bloggers are very friendly. Do you have any suggestions for how to get over the guilt, when we shouldn't be feeling it anyway?

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Have a great week!
