For this year's challenge, my theme is The Fun in Writing. Each of my 26 posts for April is aimed at illustrating fun parts of an author's day. A writer doesn't only write. Creating a story or an essay requires research, revision, editing, and lots and lots of coffee and chocolate. For me, the chocolate part keeps me going like an energizer hare...

| Luv this colorful bunny crafted by close friend, Kristen. The multi-hued hare energizes me! |
(...although, between hair touch-ups, a more appropriate analogy might be old grey mare!)

Yes, I know this doesn't look like a mare, and it's not grey,
but you have to admit, he is really, really cute!

You may have noticed the predominance of the color brown in this post.
That's because my mind is always thinking:
CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE!
In one word, my theme is FUN.

I'm not a one person word but I'll try - memoir! (sort of). Your theme sounds like a lot of fun - you had me at "chocolate".
ReplyDeleteLimericks. Your theme sounds fantastic! Best wishes for the challenge.

I need more chocolate. Mainly because I've already eaten my Easter egg and it's not Easter Sunday yet :O Looking forward to your theme, Gail!

Chocolate is a great theme, tied in with your overall theme of fun with writing. A day without chocolate is not a good day I do believe.
