Chapter a week Challenge . . .

Libby and her first diarama (or as Julian used to call them by the time he had reached 6th grade and was totally sick of them, diarrhea) Of course, what Libby does, Leilei must do, even if on a smaller scale.


I am helping my Chinese teacher write a book--he's writing, I'm proof-reading and cheering him on--and I suggested he think of it as a baby and give himself nine months to write it, a chapter a week, resulting in 36 chapters. I think. As most of you know, math is my Achilles heel.

Why 36? Well, Hongchen said it is a meaningful number to him. I didn't ask why. But I will definitely ask him sometime.

Anyway, it occurred to me that I could try to keep up with him, and so I'm challenging myself to do the same thing. I'll use this blog to embarrass myself into actually doing it. Expect the same kind of whining and self-chastisement that was featured in my pre-Marathon posts.
