Calling All Bloggers, November is Almost Here
Alright, all you bloggers, November is the month to get behind the keyboard and show everyone what you can do. There are three "challenges" going on at the same time! Crazy, huh? A challenge is nothing more than a soft commitment on your part to write within a certain set of guidelines. There aren't any prizes and it doesn't cost anything.You just get a sense of satisfaction and a chance to use some cool hashtags during the month.
National Blog Posting Month
From Indyweb.org
It was started in 2006 by Eden Kennedy "as kind of a joke because I'd failed at NaNoWriMo the previous year". [1] In 2010, NaBloPoMo was sold to Blogher.com. Blogher continued to run NaBloPoMo, expanding the challenge to every month of the year until around 2017.
The BlogHer site no longer contains any mention about NaBloPoMo and the former link for it redirects to the homepage. Many people still participate using Twitter hashtag #NaBloPoMo.

Writing Month
From WritingMonth.org
In November 2024, 255 authors plan to write a total of 9,564,016 words towards their projects.
Pick your own goal that best challenges you and write your novel, short stories, poems, stage or screen play, blog posts, or any other writing project as part of a growing community of writers.
This is Writing Month.
WeblogPoMo AMA
From WeblogPoMo (see full post for more details)
This challenge is to foster writer interaction: write a blog post starting with a question—the AMA—and then answer the question yourself in the blog post. Others will likewise write AMA/question posts, but also answer the AMA/questions from other bloggers, linking to their initial post.
