National Novel Writing Month

November is national novel writing month, or NaNoWriMo. I’ve always wanted to try it, but I always end up a bit too busy, a bit too unprepared for the work required. It’s not like I have some great dream of becoming an author. I think I’m more interested in building a stronger habit for regular writing.

It occurred to me that writing here can fill that purpose too. Nothing too ambitious – just an attempt to say something of value each day. I started arbitrarily on October 31. So since I’m already on a streak in November, I figure why not keep it going. In the spirit of NaNoWriMo, I’ll keep posting every weekday this month, and let’s see if this habit sticks.
