Through Katy Upperman’s blog, I found out about a new challenge called Blog Me MAYbe hosted by Sara McClung.
From Sara’s blog:
The purpose: To get back in the habit of blogging by following a weekly schedule for the month of May. (Or if you already post regularly, to have an easy schedule to follow without having to struggle with deciding what to blog about.)
What you DON’T have to do: Post every day and follow every blog that participates and comment on everyone’s posts every day. This isn’t a blogfest to gain followers—although maybe that will happen. And of course if you WANT to comment on everyone’s posts, feel free. :) But really the point of this is to focus mostly on our own blogs and to write posts about things we’re interested in that our followers will want to read about.
The schedule:
This can be anything writing-related. A post on craft. A post on your process. A snippet of your WIP, if you like to share. A book on craft that you want to recommend. Things you struggle with. Things you rock at. ANYTHING at all!
Pretty self-explanatory :) Share something about yourself that your followers might not know. Or maybe they do. It doesn’t matter–this is just so people who read your blog can get to know you a little better.
Ask your followers something about themselves.
Make this post about someone else. A writing friend. A critique partner. A person from history who’s fascinating. A character from a book. Anyone you want. :) Have a guest poster. Give an interview. Get creative! Just let the spotlight shine on someone else.
Again, I want to highlight that you don’t need to participate on every day of this event. Take me for example. May will be a busy month over here, with blog hops and tour stops and a blog launch (*cues drums roll*), so I’ll post whenever I can. No stress over it ;)
To sign up for this fun event, click here and find the linky list on the bottom of Sara’s post, and have fun!
Cheers,
Katy Upperman

Ooo this looks really interesting. I’ve been wanting to get a schedule sorted out and get some ideas for what to talk about.
