Here's the Topic we all Wished for...

Date for Blog-a-Ton 12: Jul 10, 2010

As we all prepare for the The First Anniversary Blog-a-Ton Meet to be held tomorrow in New Delhi, Mumbai and Pune; its the time to declare the topic for the ultimate Blog-a-Ton of the year coming up in a week. But before that, lets welcome the new Blog-a-Tonics:

• Tangerine
• Hardik Shah (Please provide a bloglink to be blogrolled)
• Rama
• Moutusi Bhattacharya (Please provide a bloglink to be blogrolled)
• Vivek Singh
• Jeevs
• Punam
• Leo
• Yatish (Please provide a bloglink to be blogrolled)
• Mayur Basude (Please provide a bloglink to be blogrolled)
• Tarun (Please provide a bloglink to be blogrolled)
• Vee (Please provide a bloglink to be blogrolled)

You all have been duly blogrolled.

Of all the topics that got suggested for this edition, Celebrations (Chanz), Wish (Leo) and Anniversary (Vikas) were the most favoured ones. Finally, the Blog-a-Tonics decided to go for Wish.

And with this for the third time in a row, topic suggested by Leo got selected. He definitely deserves all the praise.

While dealing with the topic 'Wish', you have the freedom to treat it the way you want. Its upto you; which genre of writing you choose, i.e. simple essay-type, article, dialogue, short story (even 55 Fiction for that matter), poem or whatever you feel like.

Moreover, its upto you; which mood or tone you choose to set it in, i.e. serious, witty, humour, optimistic or whatever that comes to you naturally.

Again, you have the freedom to choose the language of communication. However, we'll suggest you to write in English to put across your views to the maximum members which will also help you when its the time to vote for the BATOM.

I hope this clarification helps the new Blog-a-Tonics.

So, you all have ample time to write it but you'll have to wait till Jul 10 to post it finally along with everyone else.

Please write your posts on time as the late entries will not be allowed to participate in the voting round (though the links will be added to the participants list).

Other rules regarding posting will be conveyed to you later.

So kindly wait for that notification on next Friday rather than putting up queries right now. If the queries are regarding general pattern of the event, please go through the posts about previous events.

And yeah, hoping to see a huge participation in both the meet and this event. Its gonna be a great week!!!

Wishing you all, a free flow of thoughts

Blog-a-Tonically yours
