Blackcurrants - A Superfood?

Yesterday I published my 100th Squidoo lens – Blackcurrants – A Superfood? I can hardly believe that I have produced so many lenses in just a couple of months.

When I committed myself to bringing my total number of  lenses up to 100 by June 30th back at the end of April, I never really thought I could do it. I had to produce 23 lenses in just two months. That sounded daunting, to put it mildly.

I really did just keep plugging away doing one after another. Before I decided to go for it this time, I’d run out of ideas to write about. It’s strange because once I started, ideas came to me.  In bed one evening, I wrote out a list of ideas for new lenses and listed over fifty. Since then, I haven’t even started most of those because I’ve had even more new ideas.

For me, it seems like the more I write, the more ideas I get for topics to cover. When I get a new idea, I can hardly wait to start writing about it.  Unfortunately, other things like my blogs suffer because I run out of time especially as floors don’t vacuum themselves or dinners get cooked on their own.

I’ve fallen in love with one of Squidoo’s new templates – the Twttrlist. I made three of them, one after the other:

• Best of Chocolate on Twitter
• Best of Summer Fruit on Twitter
• Best of Garden Flowers on Twitter

I had a short break to write about blackcurrants then I did another one – Best of Superfoods on Twitter. That brought my total to 101 lenses. I like these templates because they look good and they are a good way of bringing together lenses on a similar topic and to add some extra information.

To qualify for the Giant 100 Club I have to have 100 wonderful lenses. As I’m not sure all of mine are wonderful, I need to carry on until the end of June and hope I’ve done enough. If not, then I have another chance at the end of September.
