served its purpose

Well, I made it! Today is the final day of NaBloPoMo and to be honest I am glad to see the back of it. I'm pleased to say it served its purpose. At the outset I was curious about a number of things. For instance, I wanted to know:

• if I could post something everyday (i can and did)
• what the quality of 30 blog posts in as many consecutive days would be (subpar)
• whether blogging everyday could become my way (no way)
• whether blogging everyday would open the writing/inspiration floodgates (it didn't)

To be fair, November was uncharacteristically busy which led to the misguided assumption that life would provide blog fodder. What I underestimated was how difficult I'd find the jump from working on the tasks at hand to photographing and documenting said tasks...as I worked. Also, I just couldn't be bothered to put an interesting slant on things. Thus all my best intentions went out the window. 

All in all it's been a worthwhile experience but not one I'm in a rush to repeat. 

Now for something pretty.
