So, I'm fairly positive that I made mention of it back when I undertook the learning of "Stairway," but a few times in the last five years or so, I attempted to join in on National Novel Writing Month. Some of my successes were greater than others in that regard, but that's beside the point right now. What's relevant here is this: I was checking NPR's website in between helping customers at work today, and discovered something interesting. Apparently a small New Hampshire magazine called The Wire has started something called the RPM Challenge, which is essentially NaNoWriMo for musicians. Here's a link to the NPR article:

NPR is choosing to follow an artist called Son Lux as he records in February, whose clips I discovered at work and still need to check out fully.
I really wish I had stumbled across this at the beginning of the month, so that I could've given it the proper go. Knowing me, I'll probably try anyway, seeing as how I've been tinkering around with some things anyway. Maybe even set myself a date somewhere in the beginning of March... say, the day before I leave for vacation, just to see if I can get it done. The timing would be convenient for the hard rock stuff.
Either way, I haven't really decided yet. Check back to find out, as I'm sure there will be updates. Hell, if I were working off of my own computer, there might have been video updates. Should be fun to ponder for a day or so regardless of my decision.
