NaBloPoMo
September 5th 2009 23:34
NaBloPoMo is National Blog Posting Month. It was originally created as a sort-of joke and has become fairly well known in the world of bloggers. Originally inspired by Nanowrimo, this is a challenge to yourself to post a blog entry each and every day for one month. It first took place in November and it is now year-round, with special emphasis on November (especially for those also doing Nanowrimo).
In an effort to keep my post frequency up and make sure that I write something, even if it's something small like a blog post, every day, I'm going to be participating in this for the next few months. In fact, I might just keep an account there and participate every month.
Blogging every day isn't usually a challenge for me. The only time that I don't usually manage it is when for some reason I don't have internet access for a few days, say I'm out of town or something like that-although it is a challenge to blog each day AND write 300, 000 words in a month. As you can see by my sporadic posting schedule last November.
The website design isn't the most impressive but I like it, although the forums are a bit awkwardly designed. (I'm sorry, I like proboards-format and Nanowrimo-format. I even have trouble doing anything on Forward Motion because I don't like the way the forums are programmed... they make my life difficult.)
Anyway, you can find the challenge here:

They also have a theme each month to help inspire you to write. Blogging about the theme is in no way mandatory. This month's theme is beautiful, and I hope to later on this month write a poem centered around the theme... just because I can.
Not much else to say. Busy running around and partying for the last couple of days before school starts.
