NaNoWriMo
I was trying to explain to one of the girls at work why I was doing NaNoWriMo. She just couldn't quite grasp the idea of why I would want to write 50,000 words in a month. I couldn't quite explain it to her then I came across an entry at on of D.'s friend's blogs that said
"A famous Rabbi once wrote--there are three things in life that are of the greatest importance...and if you can accomplish only one of the three you'll be in good standing with the universe. If you can accomplish more--all the better."
1: Have a child
2: Plant a tree
3: Write a book
Well, no kids for me and I can't plant a tree in rented property so number three sounds good to me. Even though my first 50,000 word experiment didn't pan out so well (it was okay, but definitely uneditable) who cares? It is the experience of doing it that counts and who knows what may come out of me this year.

Good luck with NaNoWriMo. I have already done better than me. Because I have never even tried. NaBloPoMo is more up to my speed
Good, I'm on number three of having a child. Does it matter if they are well behaved....and what if you decide to kill one of them off?
