A candid assessment of NOMENCLATURE's NaBloPoMo at halfway

My friends, we have reached the halfway point of NaBloPoMo. How is everyone feeling so far? Comments the last few days have been a little scant, so I hope everyone is sticking with me. I'd like to take this moment to thank Charles Parsons of Let's Work with Orphans for his support and comments.

I'd also like to throw props out to Kate at KateSpace. She jumped on the NaBloPoMo train a little late, but I think she's in for the long haul here, despite her statement that she is considering abandoning her site altogether. I had considered putting up a bullshit post about how I plan on driving KateSpace out of business, how my blog will thrive in the face of less competition from KateSpace. But really, let's face it, we all need KateSpace and its snarky anecdotes and list-related posts. Kate's blog speaks to everyone, whereas mine just speaks to me. Or is that for me? Either way, the only time this blog thrives is during NaBloPoMo, so lessened competition from other blogs would not really drive me to put out more posts.

In conclusion: KateSpace = good; no KateSpace = not as good.


As far as months go, I feel real good thus far.

Stay tuned for more works of fiction, creative non-fiction, and bullshit.


Best,

-RdB

Yes, I am worried about KateSpace as well.
But you know as well as I do how hard it is to post regularly. It can be draggish.
Thanks for plugging the Recommends--and keep of the push through the rest of November.
I'll be here daily (sometimes twice a day because I get confused).
