Planting Garlic and Words
Oct. 31st, 2010 12:27 pmSave LJ Month has come to an end. Livejournal should give
neenaw a one year free paid account since I got plenty of people Googling "Save LJ Month" and landing on my pages. Shows that it has had some impact. I can foresee this turning into a "thing" we do every October (like the generalised moaning that happens in February) until we are all in our retirement homes, still fretting about the need to Save LJ.
I'm glad I did it as it worked as a sort of warm up to NaNoWriMo, starting tomorrow. Yup, I'm going to try NaNo again - this time doing it entirely on a notebook (easier to carry around and sit in cafes ifprocrastination inspiration requires.) I have no clue what it will be about, but that doesn't matter. For me, NaNoWriMo is about testing myself as a writer - learning my routines, what works best for me, how my brain works, etc. I always learn something new each year, and I think of previous NaNo years with fondness.
Yesterday I went to the community garden and planted some garlic. They were happy to hear I was accepted to a horticulture course at Regent's Park. It will last 18 months and will be on the science of plant growth and propagation. I lost four weeks of the course because I was on the waiting list (until Tuesday, when someone pulled out due to illness). I have a lot of studying and catching up to do this afternoon.
My favourite performances last night: Rebecca, Katie and Cher. My least faves: One Direction, Matt and Belle Amie. I get the dreaded feeling that Tesco Mary is going to win the show.
