It's been more than a week of globetrotting, bloghopping, and exciting reading. Many new followers have signed up to read whatever I might put here next. And many more swung by to see what their favorite bloggers had to say in the six guest posts featured here in the last week and a half. To all who paused or came to stay, thank you and welcome! To all who took the time to creat fantastic posts, thank you, thank you, thank you. Write Around the World more-than-a-week was an exciting trek because of your effort.
Would you like to see exactly where we went?

I started us off with Nashville, TN and Raleigh, NC--both in the U.S.
Clarissa Draper took us to London and Mexico.
Leighton Gage showed us the uncompromising highs and lows of Brazil.
Debbie Cowens taught us something new about New Zealand.
Jackee Alston went all out in the first-ever-on-SoCityMysts vlog featuring the Southwest United States.
And Cold As Heaven wrapped up the tour with a look at living and writing in Winterland.
I don't have any other series planned, but I'm sure something will strike me in the future. What is coming is the Sunday Foreign Post Roundup you all missed this past weekend! Yep, I've been keeping track of some great links, but opted to keep the Write Around the World posts going through my usual Sunday roundup. However, next Sunday is Halloween! So I'll start with an especially appropriate link and include some spoooooky pictures. It will also be a double issue--two weeks worth of the best links around the blogosphere!
Again, thanks to all who participated and all who came by to read and comment. Writing is truly universal, something that has brought us together from around the world!
Enjoyed your Around the World series. Looking forward to whatever you come up with next (I know it will be interesting and intriguing).

Michele - Thanks for this summing-up :-). And thanks very much for hosting this Around the World series. What a terrific idea it was!!! I enjoyed all of the posts, and I am looking forward to your spooooky Sunday post :-)
ReplyDeleteJust read the last one -- Winterland looks amazing! Many of us just tolerate the snow in Canada, but there's plenty of skiers and snowmobilers who eagerly await it. I just grudgingly make my shovel more accessable :P
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog-- I too am a mystery lover-- but missed your write around the world series. Looking forward to more!

ReplyDeleteThanks for organising and hosting the Round the World writing series. I really enjoyed them.
ReplyDeleteIt was a fantastic tour, Michelle. Thanks for putting it together for us. And thank you too to all your guest bloggers for the wonderful posts. I am really sorry I couldn't take part, but one day when I can breathe, I will do a similar post on my muse city, and link back to you.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a well-done tour, Michele!
ReplyDeleteMason- Thanks for the confidence!
ReplyDeleteMargot- The "spook" will all be in the links...so give me some good stuff, guys!

Oh, man, I missed this! I'll have to go back and catch up. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh dear, not a single pin placed in my home continent. And Africa is such a fascinating, wonderful, complex place to live and visit.
ReplyDeleteWill enjoy catching up with all the other world visits though!
