A Month of Blogs...

Hey, kids.  I'm planning on hitting it hard in April and actually posting some blog posts.  We'll see.  My writing group suggested we do a novella-length challenge in the month of April--sort of a mini-NaNoWriMo.  500 words a day.  I'm not exactly a wellspring of novella-length ideas, so I opted out.  But to be in the spirit of writing and creating this month, I plan on posting a blog post every day.  That's 30 posts.

Are they all going to be 500 words?  Jesus...no.  I don't have 500 words to say about much of anything lately.  Could some of them be?  Sure.  It's possible.

What do I plan to write about?  Hell if I know.  I thought about finding one of those awful blog post topic lists.  You know, like, first kiss, favorite movie, last time you killed a man with your bare hands--that sort of thing.  But eh.  I haven't seen anything I think is interesting, so I'll probably talk about what's going on in my life.  Board games.  Tarot.  Video games.  Job woes.  You know...the usual.

Or maybe I'll forget I set this out for myself and get halfway through the month without putting a word out there, then collapse in shame.

Don't put your money on a horse just yet.  I'm feeling like this might be a thing.

And contrary to my motto (It's not a thing; don't make it a thing. (Yes, my motto has a semicolon in it.  Deal with it.)), maybe I'll make it a thing.
