Join us for VeganMofo - the Vegan Month Of Food. The idea is to write as much as you can for the month of October about vegan food. The blog entries can be about anything food related - your love of tongs, your top secret tofu pressing techniques, the first time your mom cooked vegan for you, vegan options in Timbuktu - you get the idea.
Last year we didn’t come up with strict guidelines for how often we wrote, but I think the idea is to shoot for every weekday, or about 20 times in the month. Don’t forget to tag your stuff “veganmofo” and you can use the VeganMoFo banner (^up there) on your mofo posts. If you’d like inspiration or would just like to whine about how hard it is, check out the MoFo forum on the PPK message boards (where you are right now!)
As the world catches on that vegan food really is the best choice for animals (suck it, humane meat!), the planet (bite me, melting ice caps!) and people (peas off, heart disease!) let’s show them what vegan eating is all about.
Happy writing everyone! If you’re feeling at a loss for how to start this off, why don’t you make your first entry about that?
Kittee will be hosting the official MoFo list on her blog Cake Maker To The Stars this year. Post there to be added! Happy MoFoing!

Thank you for posting all of this. I was unsure of what VeganMoFo was. I might have to start a blog just to join in on the fun!

Yep, on our blogs. And there will be a feed for all of the blogs participating, maybe google reader this year? Not sure. Also, there will be a "master list" of all blogs participating and round-ups three times a week where your entries may be mentioned!

I'm dicking around in photoshop right now, does anyone else think it's funny if the banners say Vegan Mofo III: Season of the Knish?

I hear sarahbean really loves tongs. Maybe we can get her to blog about it.

Okay, here's a really bad one:
And here's the horror movie joke one:
All of my fonts and brushes were lost to a horrible virus last month. I can make a better one if I have a few days.

mbm,
i think we should stick with something like the one we used last year and the year before cuz they actually have some kind of visual recognition. what do other people think?

I couldn't find the same font! I found a similar one and Brian and I agreed it looked crappy. I can look again tomorrow.

Season of the Knish got a big appreciative groan from Mr. Tomato. We're watching all the Halloweens in order this month. Three is the worst.

So, is there any way to keep track of all of the blogs participating other than following each one? I think I'm too lazy to go to each one and click follow... I thought last year there was some Google thing that had them all? I don't know how to do that...

From Isa'a previous post it looks like a feed is going to be set up but not sure if its Google reader or not this year. I am going to try to finally add a blog list and will try to follow as many participants as I can as I realize it is helpful for new blogs(like mine). I think I will predominantly read through the feed..but I am doing a lot of prep now to gear up for this including following those ppkers I don't already. Wow that makes me sound like a stalker.

Is it worth starting a blog just to blog about tongs? ...it just might be.

How come it's in October this year, anyway? Wasn't it November last year?

I set up a public rss feed on bloglines:

Last year MoFo was in October, but it was in November the first year ('07).

it was switched to october because some people wanted to participate in nanowrimo too.
(also thanksgiving was tricky.)
i said i wasn't going to do it this year, but maybe i'll just half-asparagus it and twitter each day.
