I offhandedly asked on Twitter a week or so ago, “Is NaBloPoMo still a thing?”
Today, being November 1, I went in search of the answer to the question. And while the official Twitter account for the event is dormant, fallow since 2011 [November 8, they didn’t make it very far into NaBloPoMo, did they?], the answer is yes, the event lives on.
And here I am, posting.
Maybe I should take a step back. You know that November is National Novel Writing Month (aka NaNoWriMo), yes? The event has daughtered spin-off events galore: National Knit a Sweater Month, which I participated in last year, and National Blog Posting Month, which I took completed in 2012.
I miss blogging, and there’s lots I could talk about. I still sometimes find myself composing blog posts in my head.
I’m not officially committing, but I want to take a swing at it, NaBloPoMo 2015. Can I do it? Will you join me?
I won’t be joining because I don’t believe I have a book in me but I wish you the best of luck. You can do it!
Oh, I’m not writing a book, either! Just a blog post every day for the month. Hopefully.
Oh, I read it wrong. I thought you were doing NaNoWriMo. Good luck posting!
Thanks! 🙂
Commit and if you miss a post no one will hunt you down! It’s so worth it in the end!
You do notice I said I’ve done this before, right? I know the costs and rewards. 🙂
Yes! I will join you.
Sooo happy to see your post in my email this morning. 🙂
Woo hoo! 😀
Yay! NaBloPoMo has been part of BlogHer for a few years now…and it actually happens every month, but November is still THE NaBloPoMo. I’m not officially signing up for it, but I’m going to see if I actually can post every day, taking it a week at a time. Good luck to you, and great to see you back!
Yes, I think it was part of BlogHer (and WordPress?) when I participated last time, too. Thanks!
Yes, please come back and share what you’ve been up to!
That’s the plan! 🙂
Hiiii! Gosh it’s been so long since a post of yours popped up in my feed reader — great to see you! I’d certainly be excited to see more posts from you. 😀
Hiii! It’s heartening to know people are still there. 🙂
