Day 1: Blogtoberfest!!

Happy October, everyone. Can you believe it's October already? I have two months until my first piece of academic writing is due (eek!) and just under three months to get all Christmas shopping and knitting done... It doesn't really seem like enough time!

Because I love doing it and I haven't done it for a couple of years, I've signed up for:




I'm pretty excited! Blogtoberfest is great because it forces encourages me to really get into the blogging and writing process and challenge both my creativity and stick-to-itiveness. I also love the opportunity to discover new creative and interesting bloggers. According to the sign-up sheet there are currently 148 bloggers participating in this event. If I visit five blogs a day, I'll be able to see them all by the end of the month - I predict my google reader blogroll will be a lot longer by then...

I will be approaching this challenge in the spirit rather than the letter of the law - I'm aiming for 31 posts rather than a post each day for 31 days. I think I can do it...wish me luck!

    Fantastic to have you back in the Blogtoberfestivities!
    Looking forward to seeing more of your knitting adventures, as well as more snaps of that supercute cat.

      My original plan was to check out all of them but if I did that I think I'd spend the whole month reading blogs and doing nothing else! Instead I'm just clicking on names at random - not very efficient but I am enjoying discovering a whole bunch of new blogs :)
