Rory Wants to Know

Fandango8 Comments

B82DA7F6-6AB5-4211-96C5-C4B24CCFD93AIn his post today, which is essentially about time management related to, among other things, blogging, Rory, aka A Guy Called Bloke, asked two interesting questions.

What do you consider the right time to publish a post for greater readership impact and viewing?

I typically don’t give much thought to the timing of my posts. My prompts are scheduled in advance, with my daily FOWC with Fandango word challenges posted just after midnight Pacific time each night. My other prompts are typically scheduled to post at 3 am my time. But all other posts are published whenever I get around to it based upon whatever else I’ve got going on in my life on any particular day.

Do you ever give consideration to other Global Time Zones when you are planning on post dating a published article?

What? Are you saying that there are other time zones around the world that I should be cognizant of? That’s crazy talk.

Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water

Each day during the month of February, at around 6 am Pacific Time, I will be posting an old adage, an old saying, a familiar expression that we’ve all heard and have probably used during our lifetimes. Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, will be to post a story, a poem, an image, an interpretation of what the expression means to you, or to do whatever it is that you want to do based upon the daily adage.

Please tag your post with #FFE and create a pingback to this post or include your link in a comment on each day’s post.

Have fun and be sure to read what others have posted in response to this prompt.

FOWC with Fandango — Few

Fandango14 Comments

FOWCWelcome to February 25, 2020 and to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). It’s designed to fill the void after WordPress bailed on its daily one-word prompt.

I will be posting each day’s word just after midnight Pacific Time (US).

Today’s word is “few.”

Write a post using that word. It can be prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction. It can be any length. It can be just a picture or a drawing if you want. No holds barred, so to speak.

Once you are done, tag your post with #FOWC and create a pingback to this post if you are on WordPress. Or you can simply include a link to your post in the comments.

The issue with pingbacks not showing up seems to have been resolved, but you might check to confirm that your pingback is there. If not, please manually add your link in the comments.

  1. And be sure to read the posts of other bloggers who respond to this prompt. You will marvel at their creativity.
