NaBloPoMo – Eclecticism

This entry was published at least two years ago (originally posted on November 2, 2007). Since that time the information may have become outdated or my beliefs may have changed (in general, assume a more open and liberal current viewpoint). A fuller disclaimer is available.

A couple years ago, I made a rather weak stab at participating in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), in which participants attempt to write a 50,000 word novel during the month of November. Unsurprisingly, given how I constantly seem to have multiple projects going on at any one time, I didn’t get very far. I’d still like to try again at some point, but I think that’ll have to wait ’til I’m out of school.

This year, I think it’s worth trying for something a little more possible: NaBloPoMo, or National Blog Posting Month. Inspired by NaNoWriMo, it presents a much more feasible goal for most people. Given that my posting lately has been rather sparse (assuming that my del.icio.us links and my Twitters don’t count), I think it’s worth a shot. Here’s my profile, since this drops me into yet another social networking site….

Of course, I’ve already missed a day, since I didn’t find out about NaBloPoMo until today (indirectly through cygnoir, more directly through Thom), but better late than never, right?
