Writer's Blog: 100 Items

I don't know where my copy of 'Writing a Novel' is at the moment so It'll be a while before a post something else on that subject. In the meantime I just wanted to put up a quick post. This is about an article which I heard about second-hand hand.

It was about a man who decided to limit himself to 100 items only. This is something I want to try to do – to get rid of a long of my junk. I need to lean to be ruthless and throw away, or give to charity, a lot of the clutter.
In a couple of places I'm going to cheat however. For instance I have books, dvds, CDs and various filled documents (like bills) they will not be marked individually. So I'll have my library, my dvd collection and my CD collection as three items, my filing cabinet will also be one item. So I'm hoping to start by getting rid of one hundred items a day. I know that most days I won't make that target but it is a good thing to try.
Could you manage with just a hundred items?
