Blogging for charity is like screwing for virginity. No wait, it isn't.

So the Blogathon is taking a year off to come back bigger and better than ever before, but for all of you just itching to stay awake for 24 hours raising money for charity, there is Project-Blog, a Blogathon-style event happening July 24th. See previous Blogathon discussion here.

Random thought: "Blog blog blog blog blog blog...." is all I hear in my head when I read this post.

Thanks for the post Orange Goblin. I hadn't heard about this and always drag my ass and signup last minute (last year signed up 6 days prior to the event). I've had a lot of fun participating the last two years and have generated a lot of writing ideas which I've used over the next 12 months.

Also, I find it bizarre (and pathetic) how creative I can be when "forced" to write for 24 hours straight (how I've approached the blogathon both times I participated) yet on my regular day-to-day writing the well seems dry more often than not.
