A-Z Challenge: Reflections

This was the 2nd time I did the A-Z Challenge. The first time, the theme was random. This year my theme was religion. It was a nice theme because it's it's quite interesting and challenging, and a source of an endless number of posts.

I tried to approach my theme in different ways; with humorous, sarcastic, provocative and serious posts. Sometimes it triggered interesting discussions in the comments. I appreciate that, and also that people were respectful and decent. Not net-trolls, although the theme as such may sometimes trigger strong feelings.

Unfortunately, April was a somewhat busy month. I spent 1 week on Easter vacation, skiing in the mountains, with no proper Internet connection (only cell phone), and one week business travel to the Arctic. Sometimes I had a hard time getting my posts published in due time, and I definitely got too little time to visit other participants. however, I found a few cool blogs that I followed throughout, in particular Write with Fey, Square Pegs and Tamara Narayam. The theme of the atter was one of my favorite subjects; mathematics. Maybe I'll pick that theme next time.

That's all for now, but as Arnold Scwarzenegger said: I'll be back >:)

(Skiing season ended yesterday. Now I will spend more free time in town. It's nice a this time of the year, when it hardly gets dark at all. That's great. I like the light summer nights in the north, but I will miss the snow and the skiing. Picture from my archives, taken in my hometown on a night in May a couple of years ago.)
