November Journaling Month 2018

Okay, here it is. I'm planning to take part in November Journaling Month 2018 for the first time ever in the life of this blog. I've been stuck with a major writer's block lately and I think some prompts and a good challenge should help me break out of the madness and get my blogging mojo back. Will I be able to do every single prompt every day? I'm guessing probably not, given the madness I'm dealing with right now (from everyone around me!) and I'm already starting a day late (such a genius I am). Am I a prompts-for-writing kinda person? Nope. I always felt much more happier when I read, 'Choose your own essay topic' in English class. Nevertheless, I'll try my best and see what happens! Fingers crossed this works for me.

Abbie is taking part in the challenge too, which is where I got inspired to do it from. I looked up the challenge and found out there are actually two different people hosting it with two different prompts' lists. One of them is hosted by Josh and the other by November Journal Month. Confusing, but I get more choices for each day's prompts! *laughs* Works for me!

Here's an index for my NoJoMo 2018. I'll keep updating this index with links to each blog post as I keep on publishing them. If I miss out on too many, the link up idea shall be cancelled so I don't embarrass myself! *hides her face and walks away*
