NaBloPoMo

Via Vetmommy (originally via Fussy), comes the idea for NaBloPoMo:  National Blog Posting Month.  To participate, write one blog entry a day for the entire month of November.  There are no prizes that I’m aware of, but you’ll be able to fine-tune your writing skills, and maybe you’ll become really good at figuring out what to blog about!  Here’s a polite little button you can grab to put on your own blog to promote the idea, again courtesy of Fussy:

On a related note, Flippy and I keep threatening to buy a copy of No One Cares What You Had for Lunch: 100 Ideas for Your Blog, and perhaps this is the time to do it!  One of the suggested ideas is to write a serial novel, which certainly isn’t my strength, but it’s being successfully done by Asta, Jemima, and Apollo over at Three Cats Write.  I think it’s a fine bit of work, especially considering cats have no thumbs, and only type about 25 words a minute.

  1. I saw that on Fussy’s site yesterday and contemplated doing it.  I guess if you’re gonna do it, I’ll do it too.  What, you’re not using the graphic with the gun?  Baby!

  2. I am guilty of this. I have posting privileges for 5 different blogs. I’m lucky if I update 3 times a week. I do tend to do a post a day, but spread out too thin.

    The word is parts. I love how appropriate the words are.

  3. We may not have thumbs, but we have plenty of attitude.

    Thanks for letting folks know about our blog novel. 

    (Too many novels about animals are written by people.  It’s time for fur, fins, and feathers to take to their keyboards!)

  6. VetMommy, we bought the book yesterday and should have it on Friday.  We’ll give you a quickie review in time for you to get the book for November posting ideas.

  7. Vetmommy, we love our copy of the blogging book!  I just wrote a review of it, so it will be one of my most current blog entries if you want to take a look.  Buy it, you’ll like it!
