I was reading a touching post on BlogHer and was yet again inspired to write a post.  That makes two posts this month (9 days) that I have challenged myself to write a post with a specific purpose.

The writing experiment that is NaBloPoMo has been great for me. I’m really trying to improve my writing and reading other posts is one of the best ways for me to do this. I love reading, always have, but I’ve never read books, blogs or magazines as a writer.  I’ve always approached them as a reader looking for information, inspiration and entertainment.  Looking at different sentence structures, uses a word, expressions and humor has challenged me to work harder.

When I describe myself as a writer, I use the term loosely as I have never been great with words, spelling or grammar.  I do want to inspire others though. Be it with breastfeeding knowledge, adoptive parent anecdotes or by telling you about a book I like; I want to contribute.

Thank you for reading, leaving comments and tolerating me!

Since I didn’t have anything else to do this month I thought I would sign up to blog EVERY DAY IN NOVEMBER!  Ugh. Erg. Blah. It’s going to be fun I’m sure.  National Blog Post Month is what that funky word above means. The purpose of this is to challenge bloggers with writing and to grow readership.  I don’t know how much I have to share but away I go!

I really do want to stretch myself a bit more with my writing so my goals are to write more about Adoption, Older Child Adoption, the famine in the Horn of Africa, parenting girls through the start of puberty, books and the holidays.  If you have any other suggestions let me know! I’m sure by day 6 I’ll be stumbling a bit.
