Disqualified

Well. Hell.

I spaced off posting on Sunday night. I spent most of the weekend cleaning. Oldest child moved out and left a room full of dust dragons that had to be slain or otherwise subdued.

And then I just gave up the NaBloPoMo ghost yesterday all together. This is probably a good thing as I got all kinds of snotty with the rules and such. I wasn't a fan of the writing prompts either. Once I got looking through the other posts out there connected to NaBloPoMo, I realized I took the directions far to literally, wrote some gothically dark prose and probably managed to scare off any casual readers. Ah, me.

Anyway, I'm back to flexing my blogging muscles. They've atrophied a bit, here and there, but the muscle memory will come back.

I sure hope so! I miss your writing!

I also gave up. I too wasn't a fan of the prompts, this round, and perhaps I chose the wrong month to attempt NaBloPoMo. Even though I am a reader and writer of fiction, I found I just didn't have that much to say about it.:-) And then my cat got sick and that gave me the excuse I needed to formally back out. Still, I'm glad I found some blogs I enjoy reading via the August blogroll, yours being one of them. :-)

Rootie: I miss writing - very cathartic.

Shelley: Sorry 'bout your cat. Thanks for reading, tho.
