I guess that “National Blog Writing Month” coincides with “National Novel Writing Month”, so I’m gonna give it a shot. (Last year, I found out about it too late and decided to write a blog entry every day in December instead.)<\/p>\n
I suppose I could have tried working on a novel, but for those of you who have read my blog for any length of time, you’ll know that there’s no way I could put 50,000 words together into a single story. Some days, it feels like I’m lucky to get in a couple hundred without drifting too far from my original point. Maybe it’s because my mind is like a butterfly that can’t move in a straight line, then flutters across the street and gets splattered against a car’s windshield… you get the idea.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I’ve put this challenge to myself and I’ve managed to keep going for the first two days. (Hell yeah!) Now that I think about it, it might have been worthwhile to mention this website to you all ahead of time in case you’re indulging in any kind of writing over the course of this month. I use it from time to time, but given how much fun I have writing long blog entries, 750words.com<\/a> doesn’t always work. Sure, I can sit down and blow 750 words out of my ass in twenty minutes or so, but would that content be worthy of a blog post? Not likely.<\/p>\n So for those of you who have started this endeavor as well, solidarity! I hope we all do an excellent job this November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I guess that “National Blog Writing Month” coincides with “National Novel Writing Month”, so I’m gonna give it a shot.
