Everyday I blogged for the 30 day month of November.
I like that I was forced to think of something to write each day.
It did take me away from my research in the sense that it was time not committed to translating or considering codes. But it made me think about writing, and the things I like to write about. Even if I didn’t get a chance to finish what I wanted to say — more than a few days I just filled what I could.
After reading Alejna’s post about the event, I am realizing that there is a lot more I could have done and gotten out of the experience. I didn’t log-on to the website at all, didn’t participate. Maybe I should do it again and see what happens? Or maybe my family will commit me?
UPDATE: I’m doin’ it for December. What the hell?

Congrats on 30 days! I did it too. And I didn’t log into the site either – which I’m thinking would’ve helped someway somehow. I’m doing another 30 also. So good luck w/round 2. I’ll check on ya – make sure your hanging in there… 🙂

Apparently last year was different for a bunch of other people, too. The Ning website was brand new, so it was a lot clearer who was actively participating. It felt like there was more of a group dynamic, somehow.
I’m kind of thinking about continuing through December, too, but am still waffling.
Mmmm, waffles.
