39 posts for January. 15 more than my previous “high” month of September 2008, where I posted 24 posts. I have so many rambling thoughts that I want to explore throughout the day, that when I saw this “Post a Day” challenge, I thought it perfect motivation. It has been.

Now I am curious how these thoughts will change, ebb and flow over this year. I will likely end with more than 365 posts if I continue on this pattern of ensuring there is at least one post a day, because that’s the way I interpret this challenge. I might have to explore less social commentary and more fiction ideas to keep the creative juices, as they say, flowing. Once a week social commentary or the sporadic multi-week I’d generally do is fine, but daily – it gets a little trite. And, really, there isn’t that much going on that I care to comment on it daily.

I enjoy all these motivating tools created to help us write and continue to write. (Here’s the social commentary, I can’t help it!) We like to complain about our text messaging society and what it does to our grammar, so it’s refreshing to see so man advocates of writing.

Journey Home: Reflections from 10,000 Feet

As I sit on the plane, surrounded by the hum of the engine and the chill of the window, I can’t help but notice the person in front of me repeatedly adjusting their seat, each movement a grating assault on my laptop screen. The journey back to Portland, high above the clouds, prompts reflections on the comforts of home and the complexities of travel.
