My theme for the A-Z challenge is ...

In one week, over 1300 bloggers will be taking part in the A-Z Blogging Challenge.  Throughout April (Mondays to Saturdays, with Sundays off for good behaviour) we will be publishing posts beginning with a different letter of the alphabet.  It has been advised (although it's not compulsory) to have a theme with regards to the posts, in order for bloggers to find blogs related to their interests.

I've been keeping my theme a secret, but today I will reveal it to the world.  Are you all on the edge of your seat?  I thought so!

Well, I'd already decided to write posts related to the craft of writing, and for those of you who know me, you'll know that I love love love love Oulipo.

So my theme for the A-Z challenge is ...

***** Oulipian Writing Constraints *****

I bet you can't wait for that!

    1. Ha! Yes, it is a bit confusing. I've been studying it for a few years, and I've barely scraped the surface. I just hope my posts aren't too confusing, and that everyone can learn something from them (myself included!).

  7. I'd never heard of Oulipo before - it sounds very interesting. They say you learn something new everyday, and thanks to the A to Z challenge, we now have 26 days to learn something new!

    And thank again for stopping by my blog, Rebeccah! Good luck, and I look forward to learning more about Oulipo and constrained writing.
