It’s nearly time for the A to Z Challenge 2025, which, having sworn never to do it again, I seem to be doing. So today its my theme reveal for my daily blogging challenge in April.
It’s supposed to be simple. My theme. Something I can do in a few words and a picture. And yet – I already have a guest I’m interviewing, several books to review, and the usual things like Flash Fiction and IWSG and MMGM.
So.. I must keep it short.
My theme is….
illustrations
They won’t all be from my books. I’ve been doing a sketching challenge with my art group during February, and some will come from there.
It’s been interesting, because the more I got into it, the more I enjoyed it (and the better they got. Admittedly, most of them are done on iPad, and using a photo reference. I’m yet to start using the lovely drawing pencils I got for Christmas, although I have opened the tin! But I think they are separate things, pencils on paper are not for the web. I don’t want to scan them in (or photograph them, as the quality would be rubbish). And too many of the prompts had the same initial letter!!
But I think it will be fun 🙂
You can check other people’s themes on the link here
That will be fun!
Good luck Jemima I shall be watching out to see 💜💜
I look forward to seeing them!
Fortunately, there are a few you haven’t seen 🙂 Not for the books, though lol
Hi, How I would love to be able to draw. Luckily, my best friend, also cousin, can, so I can fill bare walls with her drawings and paintings.
Drawn on one of our window panes, presumably with a diamond stylus, a small boy once drew a picture of a cat, two circles, two pointy ears, tail. Can’t even manage that!
If that dog (?) in the bathtub a preview of the illustrations, I’m all for it.
I’m also doing the a-z challenge though I have no themes, just ramblign and maybe some stories.
Have a lovely day.

P.S. I don’t have a wordpress blog or facebook so can’t sign in.
It’s Roscoe the guinea pig in the bath, but you could easily mistake a face for a dog 😀
I think you can add your email and name on the comments form without needing a webpage. Your email will not be visible, and is subject to the usual privacy policy. But it’s nice to see you, even anonymously !
I must be tired… you can sign in with your blog spot url, Lissa !
Sign in with my blogspot url? Oh, I see. I thought the email option was just to add email so I didn’t click on it. So I see now if I click on the email option, it shows the email/name/url option. Thanks for the tip.
Have a lovely day.

That’s a cool theme. I admire you for doing the challenge. It’s a big time committment.
Yes, it is. I’m just at the stage of wishing I hadn’t started 🤣
I thought your theme was baths at first glance 😉!
That’s next year 🤣🤣🤣
I am looking forward to it!
Looking forward to seeing your illustrations

Mine are good enough for my own books, but I wouldn’t dare do them for other people! Looking forward to yours though.
I like that style of drawing. My theme reveal is at https://artmater.com/blogging-from-a-to-z-april-challenge-2025/
Sounds like a lot of fun! I look forward to seeing what you create!
