The Traveling Twig: Taking part in some November Fun!

I'm sure you've all heard of NaNoWriMo...

but have you heard of SkADaMo and PiBoIdMo?

I'll be participating in all three over on my

blog (where I post crafts and such)

(don't worry, I won't be drowning you guys with this stuff...

but I thought I'd mention it here in case anyone was interested in trying it themselves!)

SkADaMo is "Sketch A Day Month" put on by Sketched Out.

No pressure, no rules (other than you should try to make a sketch a day)

and no pre-made themes. Just doodle!

You can also follow Sketched Out's blog to see what she doodles every day!

Want to join in?

Click on the "Sketched Out" link above,

or the button below to find out how:

Next up is PiBoIdMo,

or "Picture Book Idea Month"

Every day your task is to come up with a new picture book idea.

It doesn't have to be a full story... it can just be a title, or character name,

or anything simple that could *BE* a story someday.

Every day on Tara's blog, there will also be an awesome guest post by someone

in the Children's book/publishing industry.

How cool is that?

If you're interested in participating,

signups are open until Nov. 7th,

just click the link to Tara's blog above,

or the image below:

Finally, there is NaNoWriMo,

National Novel Writing Month.

If you're unfamiliar with NaNoWriMo,

it's a way to encourage budding (and in full bloom) writers to write,

by setting goals for the month of November.

It looks like I've got a busy month ahead of me!!!
