Challenge: 7 Days to Getting Your Blogging Groove Back
Have you lost your blogging groove? It’s easy to do - particularly in the middle of a year when so many other aspects of life compete for your attention and where motivation can sometimes go missing.If your blog is feeling a little stagnant - today is for you. In fact this whole week is for you because this episode starts a week long daily series that is all about getting back into the groove of creating great regular content for your blog.

Whether you’re feeling disillusioned, uninspired, uncreative or just a little bored with your blog - over the next week I want to invite you to tune into this podcast for a series of short daily challenges to create some great pieces of content.Note: this episode can be listened to here on the shownotes (the player is above) or in iTunes here.
Update: Take this Challenge at Your Own PaceThis challenge was originally created to be taken as a group of bloggers live over the first week of August 2016. Over 1400 bloggers participated.

Now that the live week has ended I'm leaving this series up live here for bloggers to take at their own pace. I encourage you to work through each of the challenges (listed below) and create the blog posts as I recommend. You can do them daily as we did in the live version or take it a little slower.

The Facebook Group is still live and we'll be doing ongoing challenges there - so feel free to join up here.
How the Challenge WorksEach day I’ll suggest a particular style of post to write. I’ll share a few tips on how you might like to tackle it and in the shownotes share a few examples of posts others have written in that style.
Your Task Will Be to Do 3 Things:Write Your Post - Come up with a relevant topic for your blog and write a post in the style of the challenge and publish the post the same day
