Celebrating my 100th post and other thoughts

So here is is my 100th post, well, not really. The Fiction Friday post was the 100 post but I thought I make a post for this small accomplishment. To celebrate, I am doing...what? I don't know. I guess beside posting this post, there's really nothing much to do.

Anyway here's a list of of my 10 favorite posts. Reading them again makes me want to go back and edit every single one of them. All of what I write are unpolished, unedited works so the mistakes are still there.

1. Renewal
2. Her Words
3. The Key
4. Three Word Wednesday 08
5. My Imaginary Life
6. Writing
7. Three Word Wednesday 01
8. Phenomenon
9. Wicked
10. Moon Blues



Learn anything?

Here's 10 things that I have learned doing blogging:

1. Do spell check when posting comments, you never know what strange meaning can come out of words that are wrong for what you're saying

2. Your words means something to someone

3. It's easier to praise someone's post than to insult them

3. Don't leave comments when you're in a dazed state, you might accidently post information about yourself that no one wants to know

4. Don't leave comments when you're angry, you might say things you might regret later

5. You can never have enough blogs

6. You can never have enough blog friends

7. Contest are fun

8. It's okay not to comment if you don't want to

9. It's okay to make mistake when writing a post/story

10. Promoting yourself or your blog is not always necessary


National Novel Writing Month

I am participating in National Novel Writing Month in November so updates can be sporadic at times. I'm looking forward to it but I have no idea what I am getting into or if I will finished it or not. I guess if I don't try, I'll never know right?

Since I have no writing process, there's really nothing for me to prepare. I write on paper or on the computer screen and that's it. I do have a dictionary with me occasionally. I have no special pens or sitting position. I just write. Two very good words to write by.

I am reading Reading like a writer at the moment. It's a helpful book with many examples of wonderful writers. Of cause reading is easier than writing. I am not preparing in any particular ways. Just reading a couple of books and trying not think too much.


Thank you!

I guess I should warn you, if I turn out to be particularly clear, you've probably misunderstood what I said. -Alan Greenspan, 1988 Speech to the Economic Club of New York

I present to you my dear readers some virtual roses (see photo below) as a token of my appreciation for dropping by, leaving a comment or two, for giving words of encouragement, maybe even a little knowledge that I often lack and for reading through all the typos and mistakes. I like also to thank my blog group - She Who Blog. I like to say something clever here but I could not think of anything so just - thank you and come again!
