I strive for quantity. The more blog entries I publish, the more I hope my blog stats increases. This leaves me with a sense of personal accomplishment even if I may never know who or what is really reading my blogs.
As for quality, I care not for how my blogs are published. There are too many thoughts and too little time to blog and as such a few errors are made here and there. If I could be my own editor, I would hire myself full time to review ALL published post and consolidate the most commonly occurring themes and elements and create one jumbo article, along with references to more “professional” sources of academia, journalism, science and other expertise on subjects that interest me.
So while I would like to participate in the “nano-nano” whatever project. I just don’t have the time or understanding of what I’m supposed to do or how to approach this project in one month. So far, my daily blogs are the same — numbers, people, nature and other social, economic and political issues. I guess that’s all I could share for now. Perhaps, I’ll reconsider taking on the NaNoWriMo and figure out how to best use my mind.

How about you? Do you leave things unwritten because you don’t feel like you have the time to perfect them? Would you consider setting up a private blog (perhaps using the p2 theme, which is great for quick updates) to capture the rough-draft ideas that you’re not keen on publishing but would like to preserve? I’m thinking of doing just that. Do you find that writing just to write leads you ultimately to write better or just to write more? And finally, are you willing to fess up to participating in NaNoWriMo?
