On Day 3 of the 2015 October Platform Challenge, the task was to create (or improve) a writing blog. Several writers took the challenge and shared their blog URLs. I’ve collected them in the list below.
Bloggers of the 2015 October Platform Challenge
While I tried to make this list perfect, I know that the chances of a mistake here are there are pretty high–both as a result of how I collected the information and just the sheer number of bloggers/URLs. If you notice an omission or mistake, don’t freak out; instead, share it in the comments below, or send me an e-mail at robert.brewer@fwcommunity.com.
Without further ado, here’s the list of bloggers of the 2015 October Platform Challenge:

During this month-long platform challenge, I hope to help writers develop many parts of their platform, including blogging efforts. However, writers who want to take their blogging to the next level are encouraged to take the upcoming Advanced Blogging: How to Monetize Your Blog and Build a Community course.
Writers will learn how to:
- Customize a theme to suit their needs.
