Well, a bunch of us did it, or at least, did part of it! YAHOO!
I ran out of steam nearing the end due to having way too much personal shit to deal with and not enough emotional energy to deal with anything else. But still! I managed to get most days in, and I consider that a win! And, because I skipped a few days, I feel nudged to keep on blogging. Win win.
it was good. Some good writing came out of it. Some new connections. Some renewed connections. And the reminder that, yes, I can do this. I can write like this, regularly, openly. And when I write, my people show up to read. Maybe not in droves, but at least a few will come leave some love and understanding, or tell me how they were served by what I wrote, and that’s priceless, I think.
So, what’s next? We just keep doing our thing, I guess. For me, that means slaying the usual lists, making the content, painting the paintings, and coming in here as often as I can to keep you posted on the state of Effy. Thank you again for being here for the ride, no matter how many days you wrote/read.
We rock!

About The Blog Along
Every year, twice a year, once in April, and again in September, I blog every day for a month, and invite others to do the same. We have a Facebook group, and in that group the only rule is that for every link you post to your own blog, you go off and read three other blogs and leave a comment. This is simply a way to ensure that a community happens rather than just a ‘promo’ group. You’re welcome to join in as long as you are willing to read and comment on three blogs for every blog you post. Click here to join us! If you’re too busy for that, you’re welcome to just blog on your own for a month. Easy peasy. No one is keeping score. There are no prizes except that you get to build your own readership by regularly populating your blog with good content.

P.S. This contest to win $4400 worth of art resources is still open! Check it out!!
Yay for partially completing!! Thank you for hosting!
Thank you for creating this space for us
Thank you Effy, I hadn’t blogged in ages and this was just the nudge I needed to get started again.
I don’t have a blog, I have no time for blogging, but make time to read yours when I can. Congrats to those that could tackle the challenge. Heavy sigh….someday?
I m still hanging in there, but I did not start until the 3rd. Will continue on my own schedule {as I find something interesting to share or my soap box needs climbing upon!
yay! xoxox
I have got a lot out of your blog, it drew me back into the world of Effy and I re-joined Book of Days after quitting early on due to financial issues & I joined Journal 52 as well. The inspiration you exuded has led to a renewed burst of creativity and I am back arting every day, so thank you :-)
Thank you Effy. I enjoyed your 30 day blog. I hope you don’t mind that I have added the term, FamilyFuckery to my toolbox and even started to use it LOL.
We all have our baggage! Sharing lightens the load. Thanks for sharing.
I had a blog and etsy shop for about 4 years and I know how much work goes into a single post. It’s something I toy with going back to…one day. I appreciate your offerings. Thank you for your heart and authenticity.
