Well, I made it to the end of National Blog Posting Month more or less with my blogging pride intact. There was in fact a post for every day of the month. Some of them actually happened at 2 or 3am of the following morning, but as that was the end of my "day" each time, I have decided that's kosher. I did post-date such posts just before midnight of the calendar day they pertained to, more for convenience' sake than anything else -- so here's your truth-in-advertising copping to that.
So I observed the letter of the rules. Some of my posts kind of fell short of the spirit--I think you know which ones I mean, the short not-so-interesting ones meant more to put something up than to say anything deep. On the other hand, I do have several substantive posts in thsi month--not to mention a completed chapter of the fanfic on may sideblog.
I think, in hindsight, this daily blogging thing is not necessarily for me. I used to do week-long daily blogs for eGullet, but there you had a built-in subject matter about which it was easy to spew lots of words. But it also involved making an extra effort all week to play cub reporter for the blog's audience. I don't think I could maintain such a pace for longer than a week at a time.
But I am glad I did it. And I do hope those of you who have stumbled upon me because of NaBloPoMo decide to keep hanging out.
