Thank you, NaBloPoMo

My recent daily blogging is caused in part by National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo). It’s an alternative to National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) in that instead of attempting to write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days, it encourages participants to post at least one blog entry each day of the month in November—or in any other month of the year.

I halfheartedly added my name to their blogroll for November, but I started late and didn’t follow through. Well, I started off December with a bang and I intend to keep up the daily blogging routine. It’s good for me, it’s good for you (assuming that you enjoy what I write), and now that I’m telling you about it, it’s good for NaBloPoMo.

Today’s happy surprise for me was to realize that my blog, this very one that you are reading, has been named NaBloPoMo’s Blog of the Week on their home page. I don’t know exactly what the requirements were for this honor to be bestowed on me, but I’m flattered and all giggly about it.

And because the monthly theme is THANKS, I feel that it’s appropriate to thank the person/people responsible for this honor. Thank you, NaBloPoMo!

Here’s my profile if you’re signed up and want to be my NaBloPoMo friend. Now that I’m all popular, etc.

I have a profile on NaNoWriMo, too, but after four years of participation that resulted in failure, I’m not sure that I’ll attempt it again. But who knows what will happen for me in 2009. Maybe I’ll get some other stuff published and fell up to the challenge again.

    Congratulations! I like you posting every day because it’s fun to keep up with your doings.

    Plus you write well.

    Awwww, thanks C. If you don’t have internet access (the horror) while you’re in London, that means that you’ll have a hefty backlog of my gud writting to sift through when you come home!
