My Daily A-Z Challenge on Instagram. 8/2019.
By the end of January 2019 I admit this had started to be ‘over- challenging’ me in some ways, so I have admitted I want to do my instagram photos with greater flexibility and that perhaps I am now less likely to need a challenge! Go figure. I continue to do a daily post with what I am wearing because I enjoy this and will add other photos to my collages. Thanks for your interest! Denyse
I like to have a daily photo of me taken as it helps me remember why I started to #dresswithpurpose in 2017. See here for more.
I do tend to get a bit bored after a while with myself AND what I post on Instagram (then to Facebook and Twitter) so in 2019 I came up with this idea for the first half of the year. Goodness knows whether I will continue it after that but there IS a way to go.
For me, Instagram is photo-centred and I am visually- oriented. It is a quick way for me to connect each day. BUT, the snag for me is this. I cannot connect universally as my account is private. For the very good reason : hacked in May 2017. Ask for follow: @denysewhelan
Each week, starting on Tuesday: because 1 January was a Tuesday, post a photo with the letter of the alphabet and its word I have listed loosely themed around the collage I post. Here is one example from each of the first weeks.
1 Jan: Week One: Appreciation
8 Jan: Week Two: Beauty
15 Jan: Week Three: Connection
22 Jan: Week Four: Details
29 Jan: Week Five: Exciting
5 Feb: Week Six: Flourish
12 Feb: Week Seven: Gratitude
19 Feb: Week Eight: Hope
26 Feb: Week Nine: Inquisitive
5 Mar: Week Ten: Joyful
12 Mar: Week Eleven: Kindness
19 Mar: Week Twelve: Love
26 Mar: Week Thirteen: Mindfulness
2 Apr: Week Fourteen: Noting
9 Apr: Week Fifteen: Optimism
16 Apr: Week Sixteen: Pleasure
23 Apr: Week Seventeen: Questioning
30 Apr: Week Eighteen: Read
7 May: Week Nineteen: Scenic
14 May: Week Twenty: Teach
21 May: Week Twenty-One: Understand

4 Jun: Week Twenty-Three: Wonder
11 Jun: Week Twenty-Four: eXtra
18 Jun: Week Twenty-Five: Yay
25 Jun: Week Twenty-Six: Zest
So, how about it? You sure do not have to post every day. That is just me. But should you choose to, use this hashtag (I hope to remember it!)

I look forward to sharing more of these – as my creative brain can find examples – over the next 6 months. Gosh, almost the end of January….the next five months!
