and now… off to the A to Z April Challenge!
Theme Reveal
It’s theme reveal day, and so I’m linking up this blog post to the Theme Reveal post over at A to Z Challenge Central!
In this tenth year of the Challenge, I’ve decided to look back over the seven years I’ve done, and give you a Best Of… theme. And in keeping with all the Flashbacks I like to do, I’m calling my theme…
Flashbacks!
The Outline…
I’ll be repeating posts from all my past Aprils, which will mean sometimes e.g a Friday post will turn up on a Monday, so don’t expect the usual pattern of Saturday book reviews etc. I also have some new posts to include.
Because the Letter images didn’t start till 2014, posts from before then will have the anniversary letter badge. New ones will too.
I’ve selected them by going through all the past years and jotting down those I’d like to repeat. I’ve tended towards the current interest of my blog, so they generally fit with the strapline above. There is one that got bumped out of last year’s list, as there was breaking news on something of that letter. Because of the work I’d done on it, I just dated it for a future challenge. There will be a couple of new book reviews.
And as well as my own posts, I’ll be doing a guest post on the A to Z blog, for the letter G, April 8th. And of course, my guest post for The Story Reading Ape on April 14th, but not A to Z themed!

Have a good April, and I’ll be over to see your theme reveal post shortly!
I first blogged from A to Z in 2013 and had letter images then. 🙂
I thought I did, Sue, and I found just one letter. I don’t think they had got them in 2012. Somebody else was given thanks in 2013 for the badges and then Jeremy has been doing them ever since. But I switched my blog from the free wordpress to this self-hosted one around then, and a lot of the pictures didn’t come through.
But if you’ve got H, P, R or Z, let me know and I’ll nip over and download them from yours!
I’ve got them all, unless they have mysteriously vanished into the ether. You are welcome to try to use them. 🙂
Thanks! I’ve nipped in and borrowed them 🙂
Hi Jemima – good luck to all WriteClub19 entries … and to the A-Zers … I’ve opted out this year – but your thoughts make sense for entries … cheers Hilary
I hope you’re going to be visiting, though, Hilary!
Sounds like a fun theme! I look forward to seeing your posts!
Thanks, Stephanie!
Great idea for A to Z!
I was forgetting about the WriteClub thing. Need to find a story that will suit, or write one. Hmm. If I use one off my blog, you might recognize it 🙂
Check the rules – not published anywhere – including on your blog! But it’s only 500 words 🙂
Yeah, I saw that. I think I got an opening line, so maybe I can come up with another 490 words by the end of the month.
I can’t imagine now how I managed to do the A to Z! Good luck with yours.
Thanks, Anabel!
That’s going to be a fun theme. It’s hard to believe it’s been going on for 10 years.

What a clever idea, Jemima. Maybe I will do that next year – I saved all my posts from the 3 or 4 times I did the challenge!
An intriguing approach so I’ll look forward to seeing what you select and what you said previously. [Don’t think any of my old posts bear airing a second time.]
Well, I sometimes doubt that mine are up to scratch, but then again, it shows how far we’ve come!
Sounds like an interesting theme – A-Z Retrospective. All the best for the challenge. Back in April.
Thank you, Nilanjana – I’ll be over to see you soon!
