Seeing as November is both National Novel Writing Month and National Blog Posting Month, I intend to write a lot during the time. The goal for NaNoWriMo is to get writers (mostly aspiring writers from what I can tell) to just write, to forget about their insecurities and the arduous task of being good and write a 50,000-word novel between Nov. 1 and Nov. 30. To quote the website, "It's all about quantity, not quality." If I can really get into the spirit of NaNoWriMo, it should be really go for me. And the goal of NaBloPoMo, to get bloggers to update every day, is something I should be doing anyway. So, you know, look out for the Procrastinator in month eleven.
For those of you who are interested in participating in the November awesomeness but don't have a blog and aren't interested in writing a novel, Matthew Baldwin over at defective yeti has initiated NaNoReMo (national novel reading month). This year's book is Catch-22, which is a book that, if you're someone who reads books, you should probably read. . . even if you don't like it. Just because it's Catch-22.
I'm grateful for Celia Jo (20).
You're so sweet to be grateful for new babies!
ReplyDeleteI expect to be reading daily updates. I'll be sitting on my ass at home for 3 months and you should consider me as I kick off my hiatus with a November full of posts. I'm counting on you to be my personal entertainment!
Ah, motivation. Thank you. I'll do my best.
