*As you enter As the Fates Will Have It, you are greeted by a hostess who leads you into the great hall. There are tables set up, a wine and spirits bar, a coffee and tea bar, a large buffet with delightful eats, and an entire section for desserts. At the back of the room is a stage and a jazz band. You are invited to indulge as you await the big announcement*
*The band plays as everyone mingles, eats and drinks. Suddenly the music stops and Lori takes the stage*
Hello friends! Today I am celebrating the A to Z Challenge Theme Reveal!
*She turns and looks at the drummer*
Drum roll, please….
*long drum procession*
My theme is….. a personal one: People Who Inspire Me!
This theme will allow me to explore some of the people who have inspired me – spiritually, emotionally, and with my writing.
I hope you will all join me! And now, back to the Jazz, eats and drinks! Have a great time!
*There is still time to sign up! You can do so here.*
As the Fates Would Have It 
Wonderful theme, Lori! Right up my alley, as I have posted about the necessity of heroes before and plan to do more. I also love the design of your blog … very calming.
Thank you, Rachael 🙂 I love your theme too!
Great theme. And what a good idea to have a page for the A to Z posts.
Thank you, Patricia.. it does make things easier for those visiting.. can’t remember where I got the idea from, but I think it was one of the tips from last year’s A2Z
LOL! You had me at “buffet”! Looking forward to your posts fellow A to Zer!

Had to jump right in and say you’ve set up your theme reveal beautifully! I love the visual drum roll, the goodies, the anticipation — all leading to a topic sure to tantalize — those people who inspire you. I’m already looking forward to reading more. Have a truly great month! Beth

Thank you, Nilanjana 🙂 And thank you for stopping by!
This is an interesting topic. It’s a very personal one to share as well. It tells others a little more about ourselves. Looking forward to reading your posts.
Thanks, ShawnTe.. yes, it is a bit revealing, but I hope it will also be interesting 🙂
I love your theme! And you totally got my attention with the jazz band AND the buffet! I’ll definitely come back in April!

Thank you, Catherine! I will look forward to seeing you again soon 🙂
What an awesome theme! So many possibilities, from people you know personally to public figures to cartoon characters. Looking forward to your posts!
Hmmm, well… no personal people and no cartoon characters.. but lots of public figures, writers, and performers 🙂
A great idea indeed as many inspire away
Thank you, Pat 🙂
what a great idea and hopefully it will introduce me to a whole lot of inspiration.
Nice theme for the challenge. Everyone needs inspiring. And your images just inspired me to buy some cupcakes. : )
I love this theme! What a great idea. Really looking forward to your posts.

Excellent theme. I hope at least some of those people are alive and will get to read the tributes.
Thank you, Wendy 🙂 Yes, some of them are still alive, but too famous to check out my tiny space on the web.. lol

Hi Lori, lovely to have you back! Missed your cheerful presence 🙂 I’m tempted to join this but am doing 2 Blogging Uni courses concurrently. ‘Twould be OTT. However, look forward to reading what others have to say 🙂
Thank you, Raili.. ’tis good to be back! It was a looooong boring weekend.. lol Oh hun, don’t stress yourself by adding in another thing to do.. just enjoy your blogging uni courses 🙂 I hope you will enjoy my A2Z posts 🙂
I look forward to reading them. I still want to do Blogging basics 101 if that’s what it’s called. This is my catch up learning time 🙂 It’s been good, just intense
It’s great that you are doing these Uni basics… I never did any of them. I should have.. I would probably know more now.. lol
Some of it makes more sense to me now with a bit of experience under my belt. But I’m picking up on things that would have been useful to know earlier too.
Yeah, I think that’s why I never went through them.. been at this now for 4 years, so I probably know it all now… would have loved the knowledge way back then though.. lol
Love the way you’ve presented your theme reveal! I know I’ll enjoy reading! 🙂
Thank you, dear 🙂
I loved this spectacular Theme Reveal post! And what a lovely idea to write about people who inspire you! Look forward to reading your posts through April!
Thank you dear! I hope you enjoy them 🙂
