Yes it’s my latest update for the 100 Articles in 100 Days Challenge on Ezine Articles.  And after a period of lagging behind (partly due to having gone on holiday) I have stormed ahead once again and now have just twelve articles left to write and submit to meet the Challenge!

I must admit there have been a couple of times where I wondered if I would actually do it.  And it was only having very publicly announced the fact that I was going to try on this blog that persuaded me to keep on going.

I think there are about 18 days to go too, so I’m six in front and making an effort to complete two articles a day so I finish with a few days left in hand.  And yes I shall be applying to receive my HAHD mouse mat and mug as reward for my hard work!

I’ve still got a little way to go of course, and I don’t want to fall flat on my face and fail at the last minute.  But it does go to show what can be achieved, and I think now I have the habit of writing these articles and benefiting from them to carry forward into the future.  And of course if they have HAHD Challenge #3 upcoming, I wouldn’t say no!

So Allison, what will 100 articles there get you… links, ego (I doubt that) – why did you do this other than the challenge?

For me it was a question of getting my name in front of potential clients – and also yes, getting more traffic to my blog. And backlinks of course! But also to prove to myself that I could meet a deadline that was purely for me, and not for a client. It’s easy to take on client work and let your own goals fall by the wayside. This challenge has changed my way of thinking and my approach too. Now I make myself just as much a client as other people are. Thanks for your response Anne!

Congratulations! I don’t think I could do it. I mean, I make and reach my own writing goals all the time, but I don’t think I could write 100 articles for EZA, definitely not on 100 days.

You know, I didn’t think I could do it either – I did wonder very early on what I had committed myself to! But I’ve seen good results and it’s been well worth it.
