… is, for a start, a misnomer. National Blog Posting Month? Whose national? Pfff. The cheek.
Because I broke my site last night, I have already broken the sacred covenant of NaBloPoMo, which is to post every day in November.
You may have noticed I’m using the term NaBloPoMo a lot. This is in the sincere hope it will begin to sound less stupid to me.
I’ll let you know if I make any progress.
The problem is that pomo is my student shorthand for postmodernism – probably many people’s, in fact. So what goes through my head every time I hear this contorted acronym is:
“Should we all get really excited about postmodernism?”
“Nah; blow pomo.”
Sarah, my NaBloPoMo comrade in arms, has either discovered or determined (decided?) that the theme for NaBloPoMo is dross. Given the above prose, I think I can reach for, and potentially even exceed, that theme. Every day. Without trying. Dross? I’m all over it.
I’m tempted to try and post every day on the theme of Blow Pomo. Ro Blows Pomo. Perhaps it can be the subtext.
Perhaps it already is.
