The Big Reveal, and Reflections on A to Z

Ok, so if any of you have ever wondered what the wine bathed (thanks erica!), angel-sculptured (thanks Laura!) me actually looks like, here I am:

So what do you guys think about using a real photo

vs

a cartoon/your pet/a closeup of your eyeball/any other random image?

And, in other important news, we survived the A to Z Blogging Challenge!
My reflections:

• Thank you to all the FABULOUS people who visited here and decided it was worth clicking the FOLLOW button. Do you want a reward? Do you? Do you? Awesome! Click here.
• It was a lot of FUN to post about random things for a month instead of always trying to write something about writing! (Can I keep posting randomness?)
• I was very bad about visiting new blogs. In comparison to the whole list I only managed a FEW. I was on holiday with a limited internect connection, using my super slow BlackBerry to check blogs, and I considered it a good day if I even managed to get back to just the people who visited me first.
• I FOUND some awesome new blogs to keep up with :-)
• And... am I going to be doing this again next year? Um *gulp* probably!

Thank you soooo much to Elizabeth Mueller for creating this award for us :-)

Extreme Makeover!

Ok, so I'm not actually making over my blog, but I am making over me :-) Well, not me me, but the way I represent myself across cyberspace. I've been using the same picture on all my different social media platforms, but you can't actually tell from it what I look like.

I guess when I started out in the blogosphere I was scared of using a photo that shows exactly who I am (um... I can't actually remember why now!). Anyhoodle... The time has come (as the Walrus said, to talk of many things: of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of... ... I'm definitely getting carried away here, but I love that poem!) for the great reveal!!

Ok, not great compared to really great things... but still, this is a big step for me!

So come back tomorrow for the great reveal!

Oh yeah, and don't forget about the X Marks the Spot Treasure Hunt. Now that the A to Z Challenge is over you should have time to find the hidden Easter eggs ;-)
