After NaNo...further meetings?

strangeseraph — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 10:10:29 -0800

I just rememebered that the NaNo website usually closes after NaNoWriMo ends, so I made a Yahoo Group for those of us who still want to keep meeting and writing prose and such after NaNo is over. Go have a look, join if you like. :) What do you think?

If going to a coffee shop downtown every single time becomes a problem, I have my own apartment in the East End, down near the Tecumseh Mall, albeit a little unfurnished (no seating). But heck, every good writing group starts somewhere.

In the very least, if we don't meet we can always chat online. :)

Wilsonworld — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 06:12:52 -0800

So...how is it going?
Are you where you want to be? Need to be?
Heck have you even started???

For myself, I am right on track, with 22,032. that of course could change at any time.

Anyone else?????

What is everyone writing?

Xocoatldreams — Sun, 4 Nov 2007 10:28:45 -0800

We've had the 'who are we' post, now's time for the 'what are we doing?' post. Doesn't need to be specific, just the general idea of what you're writing.

Myself, I'm writing a fanfiction story that's been plaguing me for months.

Anyone else?

Pen and Muse meet Wall. Big Wall

Xocoatldreams — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 19:07:06 -0800

7,000 words in and I've hit a lull. I can't seem to get any farther. I sat there the other day and stared at the screen waiting for something to come. And then I sat there and tried not to cry when nothing would. *headdesk* this is driving me crazy. The ideas are there in my head, prancing and parading around but they refuse to be put out on paper (or screen as it may be). Someone shoot me now please. Pretty Please.

I had hopes to be passed the 15,000 mark by this week, but yeah that didn't work out so well. Between the crazy training for my job and little sleep, writing has been pushed back.

I promise to do my best to make NaNo my prioterty when I'm not at work. Cut back on watching tv and reading other's fics and focus my attention on mine.

Now that I've rambled a bit:

Is anyone else having any writing troubles? Plot not coming up right? Uncooperative characters? Words that seem to hate being written?

Share so I don't feel as bad, please.

Meetings in Windsor . . . A thought

Serena Darrin — Thu, 4 Oct 2007 09:16:41 -0700

I haven't heard anything yet so I figured I'd be the first to toss this idea up. . .

Last year people doing NaNo met in a coffee shop on Oulette called the Coffee Exchange. That was kind of cool. . so I'm wondering who is up for doing that again. I can give directions if people want. All we have to do is pick a date.

If no one else has any objections; I'd say Monday nights.

Thoughts?

Serena Darrin — Thu, 4 Oct 2007 09:21:49 -0700

Ok, so who is everyone?

I'm a 4th year Music major at U of Windsor who's stupid enough to try this again. . .

First Meeting -- Monday, Oct 29th, 7pm

Serena Darrin — Sat, 27 Oct 2007 07:13:50 -0700

Ok, so we've got our first meeting of the year, if people want. I was figuring it might be nice to meet before NaNo started, to bounce ideas and get to know people.

The meeting place is the Coffee Exchange, at 343 Ouellette Ave.

http://www.coffeeexchange.ca/contact.htm

That's got their map and contact info. Note that if nothing's changed from last year you'll need to bring cash.

I'll make a point of staying until 9:00 pm, so if people have to show up a bit late, that's fine.

See you all there!

Sarah
