I seem to have lost my mind. Because for the month of November, I'll be participating in National Blog Posting Month, spearheaded by M. Kennedy, blogger and t-shirt maker extraordinaire. What does that mean? I'll be posting every single day in November.
Every.
Single.
Day.
While I'm still looking for that extra time I desperately need to go to the gym, write the Great (or Not So) American Novel, sit and stare at a wall (sometimes quite a necessary pursuit) and feel plugged in to my life, my city, my friends and my sweetheart, I seem to have become bewitched by the challenge that NaBloPoMo presents.
Plus, there are prizes! So here goes nothing.
And yes, I'm totally counting this as my first post.
Well, I am selfishly totally glad that you will be posting every day in November! And I will be further in awe once the mission is accomplished! Good luck -- I'll be reading!

Awesome. I am also selfishly thinking that I'll have lots more great reading material this month.

Good for you! And I'm completely agreeing with Maya and Sarah that I'm looking forward to more posts to read this month.
I'm sure your readers will do their part by posting lots of comments cheering you on.

What a challenge! I'll be reading along and rooting for you. Can't wait!

Good luck - I'll be cheering you on! I came across that the other day and was seriously tempted... but I think my enthusiasm would have lasted about 3 days!

Maya, Lisa, Sarah, Cathy - thank you. I will definitely need the luck and support! (I feel like I'm joining some kind of 10-step course now.)
Sarah - That's sweet of you to say!
Julie - um, yes, PLEASE? I'll be needing those comments as motivators.
Julia - it does sound like fun, right? Or a strange form of self-inflicted torture.
Danielle - you're doing this madness, too? Thank goodness.
Shuna - you're the best.

Wow, a post every day. That sounds hard for you and fun for us!
And I know what you mean about trying to balance everything. Ever since I started my blog, I've been eating more than ever and going the gym a lot less! Oh well, life is short.

I'm with you, baby. But how am I going to post every day if I have the pleasure of coming over here to read every day? (Oh, and finish a manuscript.)
