I’ve now done the A to Z Challenge two years in a row. However, this year I took on an added challenge of my own by not only doing it on this site but also my author site (kristenatunstall.com). I may not have always got my post up on time, which only happened a couple of times, I did get every letter written in the month of April on both sites.

Just like last year, for this year’s challenge I chose to do each letter about Mari in some way. In a way I hope people could see through each letter as I posted it the love I still have for my little girl and how much she is missed.

After doing the A to Z Challenge last year I couldn’t wait to do it again this year. The same is still true for next year as well. I may not know yet what I will do it on but know this is my confirmation now that I fully plan to do it again. I hope you will join me again next year as well.

If you missed any of the posting from the month of April, here is what I did each letter on:

This year is the first time I did the A to Z Challenge on this site. However, I did do it last year on my daughter's dedication site (mommysangelinheaven.com) and fell in love with doing it. So this year I decided to really up the ante, so to speak, and…

Z is for ZZZs #AtoZchallenge #acfw

The dreaded ZZZs. It's exactly what we don't want to do to our readers. That is make them fall asleep as they are read our books. We want our novels to be so engaging that they have a hard time putting it down so much so they don't want to…
