Years and years and years ago–an eternity in blog-post time–there was a cool challenge from Eden Kennedy to write a post every day for the month of November. She called it NaBloPoMo after NaNoWriMo. What? You don’t understand that. Okay, pay attention:
National Blog Posting Month National Novel Writing Month
Or some such thing. It’s been a while, so I may have my acronyms confused (does that mean that there is acrimony among them?).
Whatever. I enjoyed the Novembers that I did NaBloPoMo, even though I didn’t win a prize. Then as with so much in the blogosphere, NaBloPoMo got institutionalized as a monthly writing prompt and I lost interest.
However, lately I’ve been thinking about the whole post a day thing. It’s a great way to get into a writing rhythm–which is, after all, The Crucial Thing For Writers. So I thought I’d try it again, just here, just for us.
I promise, on my honor, etc. etc. etc., to publish a post a day on MidLifeBloggers for the entire month of November . Care to join me? We could call it MLBBloPoMo (give or take a day or two, like the 1st and 2nd!). If you send me the url to your posts, I’ll publish the links every day here on MidLifeBloggers.
If nothing else, it should be a fun way of seeing who’s in the neighborhood.
