Master of the short post

I have decided that I must master the short post. My inspirations are posts like this and this from these famous bloghers, her and her, respectively. Successful short posts create a lasting impression. The most ingenious ones get me thinking during the day because they taught me something. Great writing happens when you can pen just a few words and get your readers’ minds spinning. This is my goal, to be the Master Of The Short Post (MOTSP) so that the two people who read this blog regularly can have more free time to get away from the computer and get some fresh air! See, I really do care.

Alas, I have two long posts ahead of me regarding Ellie’s latest adventures in casting and nutrition for the brain damaged child. With my MOTSP goal in mind, efficiency of language will guide. Right now I am tired because MI III sucked us in last night and kept us going until after midnight…. Is it only me, or did the lead woman remind you of Katie too? Somehow after way too much exposure to Tom’s personal life, dreams, philosophy, religion, views on psychiatry, and bizarre personality I couldn’t quite separate all that from his character. Sigh. Lesson Learned: I won’t ask and spare me the details about your life because I may not like your movies anymore, as much as I want to like them and you…

Lastly, today is the last day of NaBloBigMo. BloBigMo has been an interesting experience to say the least. If you are an aspiring novelist I highly recommend NaNoWriMo. I will not be one of the WriMo winners as I fell short of the 50k. I did learn a lot about writing and became very clear on all I do NOT know about structuring a novel. I want to learn more about that. If anyone knows of any great books or resources let me know. As my insanity seems a permanent life long condition, I may even attempt it again next year.
