november.creative.magic?

 

journal page from november 2009

I'm wondering if you've been pondering the November challenges, because I've been trying to decide what to do. For the last two years, I did AEDM and NaNoJouMo, but 60 bits of art in one month, plus posting, writing, linking... I know that it is not the level of energy but the DESIRE to do the challenge that will get you through. In 2009, I did them amidst a never-ending asthmatic cough AND mono. So I know. Yet I hesitate. We have house guests part of November and I don't have a dedicated artspace. But I don't know if that is enough to hold me back...

NaNoJouMo {National Nonstop Journaling Month with Dawn of D'Blogala}
AEDM {Art Every Day Month with Leah of Creative Every Day}
NaNoWriMo {National Novel Writing Month}

And those cute little index-card-a-day's.

The entire world will be buzzing with creative energy this November! Everywhere you turn, people will be drawing, painting, stamping, collaging, journaling, photographing, thinking, blogging, posting, writing.

Have you decided? How did you decide what challenge to do?

I first heard about NaNoWriMo YEARS ago, and was so intrigued by the idea, but I've never tried it. (It's filed in my mind under "Someday.") I could easily do AEDM except for committing to the daily posting part. I try to stay in touch with my limitations! :-)

Loving the ideas...I will attempt to journal something every day....BUT the big but is that I am also doing a Certificate in Theology and working (and looking for another job) all at the same time!

I would like to do nanowrimo again, I have only joined once but enjoyed it even though I didn't win. But geeh, it takes a lot of time and every day now that I work I'm not sure it's possible. I will have to think about it some more...
