Blogging for SoCNOC

Kiwi Writers is looking for bloggers who can commit to sending in at least 2 blogs during June.
We are hoping to get people who are doing SoCNoC, to blog about the experience. But if you have done SoCNoC in the past or NaNOWriMo, that is just fine.
What I am looking for is ways to prompt, prod and push people to write MORE then they have in the past.
If you are interested in Blogging for SoCNoC, please PM me with the dates you are able to blog on during June.

Mentors, do we need them?

  Mentors for writers. 

Throughout history, we see reports of those getting ahead in life due to having a great mentor.
But the question is, do we need one or will we do fine without?

As with most things, having a mentor can help you attain the goal of being published or even a finished piece of writing, faster then going it alone.
Will having a mentor make it happen if you, yourself have no drive, ambition or dedication? No, and these are things I feel cannot be taught.

So tell me about??

   Writers, are we a curious bunch or what?

  It was recently brought to my attention that I can be overly curious. Yes, OVERLY was stressed in a not so nice way.

My first thought was not one of 'How rude!' or 'Jealous', it was "How can one be overly curious?"
I mean either you are curious by nature or you are not, so slightly or overly should not be dangled in my face.
I guess I should have known since this person who commented, has never displayed a case of interest in anything other then cricket. (the sport not the insect)

  What made them comment in such a way? Yes, I did ask, which just earned me a "You just proved my point".

Editing month is killing me.

Editing, the horrible chore all writers must endure, I'd rather visit the dentist then edit!.

  This month I had promised myself I would knuckled on down and get my last years SoCNoC novel edited. Lets just say, my promises to myself mean not alot.
