Welcome to the 2009 National Blog Posting Month (or "NaBloPoMo" for the acronym-oriented, text-speak lot). As of this morning, the challenge was set for bloggers across the Internet -- 30 posts over 30 days. Granted, writing more than 30 posts over the next month is encouraged, also. I mean, you can't penalize someone for flexing their writing skills. But the absolute minimum is set and the general timeframe to complete them is decided.
No excuses.
I found out about this project through feral geographer, one of the commanders over at Queer Canada Blogs. Yes, that site is quite possibly THE central hub for Canadian bloggers who happen to be queer. It's a diverse collective of writers stretching from the west coast all the way down east and well up into the northernmost reaches of the country -- heck, we've even got some Canadians abroad who are writing their experiences for the group. I can guarantee you will find at least one other blogger to connect with on this blogroll and you'll discover a wide range of new perspectives that are sure to keep you reading.
I've just signed up over at the NaBloPoMo headquarters and joined the exciting extension of the Queer Canada Blogs group -- we're off to a nice start in terms of numbers and we welcome all to check it out.
So, here it is -- the first post of the month. It should be interesting to see what stories develop over the course of the next thirty days. Here's hoping my Muse is at her finest in the coming month -- November, here we come!
