Check out my favourite blog posts

I have a page on this blog called "Me Likey" (hey, I was trying to fit the title into my tabs so they didn't take up two rows...) on which I have listed some of my favourite blog posts written by other bloggers. However, until a few days ago, I had totally forgotten the page existed. I read a blog post today on C.A. Marshall's blog, and though it belonged on the page (so added it). Then I figured some of the other posts on there might be useful to you guys too! However, this is also a call for more ideas. Are there any awesome blog posts you've read lately that you think I'd like?

In other news, I'm getting excited about NaNoWriMo this year! I have a bunch of friends who are already talking about it, including some folks who will be new to the experience this year (YEAH!!), and it made me realise that it's not too far away. Exciting!! Are you participating in NaNoWriMo 2011?

In closing, I thought I'd share a couple of photos I took recently of where I work (okay, so the library isn't RIGHT HERE, but this is a few hundred meters' walk from where I do work, in Fremantle, WA):

  2. Nice pictures. I should have mentioned your photographs when I gave you the versatile blogger award on my blog earlier today.

    I'll definitely be doing NaNo again this November but have no idea what I'll be writing as of yet.

  7. I know exactly what I'm doing for NaNo this year, and hoping I can pull it off. I'm hoping to finish THE LULLABY's rewrite by the beginning of the second week in October, when I'll start planning. That will give me plenty of time to plan and also about three weeks to write.

  22. @Samantha - oh well, at least you're not counting it out yet! hehe

    @Charmaine - me too, for sure! At least, the time when I get the most words written.

    @Debbie - no worries, happy to share and show off my home!

    @Liz - whereas I live beside it and kind of take it for granted...!

  23. I probably won't be able to do Nano this year, alas. My schedule at present is a bit crowded. Hope springs eternal, though....
