OK, so in an effort to write more on this blog, I proposed a blog post challenge to Dan Hocking, of DanHocking.com fame. He accepted my challenge (the poor sucker, doesn’t know what he’s in for) and as of tomorrow, we’ll be starting “The Great Write-Off of 2009.”

THE RULES:
1. We will post every other day, alternating days between each of us.
2. We MUST post on our day – nothing past midnight EST or it counts as being late.
3. Posts can be about anything or anything. A funny story, an observation, personal information, etc. However, there must be SOME content to it. Can’t just put up a picture of something and call it a day. (Unless…)
4. Unless… you made the picture. Video, audio, visual, text – any and all is an accepted format.
5. Days missed or late posts will result in punishments (see more below).
6. On our “off” days, we will link to the our competitor’s post (if it’s up within a reasonable amount of time).
7. Spamming friends, twitter accounts, facebooks with links to the posts is more than encouraged.

PUNISHMENT
1. It is up to the punishee to pick their final punishment.
2. Punishment options can be picked from either the punisher’s suggestions, or if any commenters have suggestions.
3. Must be blog-related (i.e. will be in post form, though can be any of the aforementioned acceptable formats) and please, nothing too illegal, TMI or dirty. We are “professionals” here, after all.
4. Punishment must be done within 48 hours of missing a deadline.

STARTING
Tomorrow, June 9, 2009 with yours truly!

ENDING
Tuesday, July 9, 200. The day of freedom. The day I celebrate my momentous victory. The day I will allow myself to run out of ideas.

Let the write-off begin! (Well, tomorrow.)
