NaNoWriMo Too Challenging? Try NaBloPoMo or NaNoReMo

Posted by infinitygoods on October 22, 2007

If Friday’s post intrigued you, but the National Novel Writing Month‘s 50, 000 words in 30 days challenge was just a bit too much of a challenge, you might consider these two.

The National Blog Posting Month challenge from Eden Marriott Kennedy is to “post everyday for the Month of November. That’s all you have to do,” she says.

Inspired by Chris Baty’s NaNoWriMo, Kennedy came up with NaBloPoMo for 30 blogging days in November. Her website provides groups and forums a blogger might find interesting even if not joining her challenge. If unsure what to write about on your blog, just check out the Writing Prompts Group.

But if you’d rather read blogs than write them, there’s NaNoReMo or National Novel Reading Month, also set for November.

Can you read a book in one month? Beware, Matthew Baldwin the founder of NaNoReMo at defectiveyeti.com did not meet his own whale of a challenge last year when he picked Moby Dick, nor did his blog readers.

This year 1,270 of his readers voted on Catch-22, a much easier goal to reach.
