    Yes pls. I wasn't planning on Camp this year, but I clearly need more motivation to work on my revisions.

    awesome! i'll set one up and send you an invite :D


    ExOmelas replied · Jun 23, 2019

    BluesClues replied · Jun 23, 2019

    I did that about an hour ago, so you should be good now! And thanks <3

    Heyo, if anyone fancies joining a Camp NaNo cabin so far populated by five very excited young writers, let me know your NaNo username and I'll add you. Remember you have to have a project set up for it to let me invite you.

    Gogogogogo!

    I've decided to try out to be a Squills writer and the article I'm going to submit is going to be about Camp NaNo. I'd quite like to interview someone about their Camp NaNo so if you're interested, please PM me!

  • ExOmelas
    Hey everyone, this is insanely last minute because I forgot to mention for a while (LMS and stuff), but @ScarlettFire has set up a cabin for YWSers so if you would like to be included in that either ask me and I'll tell her or just let her know directly ^.^

    I’d love to join, but I’m already in a cabin. Sorry!


  • Atticus
    We're in that home stretch of NaNo, that final push to get words onto the page. Join me for a bit of a Random Jamdom if you want to catch up on NaNo or work on any other writing project!

  • ExOmelas
    Hey, I know I've been a bit radio silent recently - lots of reading and studying - but I've got a pad up for a chill hangout if anyone wants to join. People are welcome to do word wars but I'm trying to have a fairly relaxing night so I probably won't join that. Anyway, come hang out :)

    I would love to! I know it's a bit late but if anyone's still interested I'd be totally down!


  • ExOmelas
    What time zones are people in? I was thinking it would be start to have a midnight write-in but then I remembered that midnight is probably different for everyone xD

    I'm GMT

    Atticus replied · Apr 1, 2018

    I'm in EST personally, and to my knowledge that is a fairly common time zone.


  • ExOmelas
    Alrighty, let's get this ball rolling!

    Pad hangout: https://biscuitsleguin.writerfeedpad.com/128

    I'm thinking practice word wars might be fun, get us into the swing of things for next month. If you'd be interested in that, say in either the comments, the pad, or the cabin, when you'd be available and we can try and organise the best time for as many of us as possible.

    I also think it would be a good idea for everyone to claim a space on the pad and claim it for the whole month. We can come back to this pad for write-ins and word wars throughout, so we might as well get settled just now. For now, my suggestion is to give us some details of your plot, then go round everyone else's and poke and prod at plot-holes, make suggestions etc

    I'll make a separate space at the top of the pad for where newbies can ask questions to veterans about the NaNo experience, but feel free to ask them anywhere you like. I'm sure people will be happy to help :)

    Atticus replied · Mar 30, 2018

    for some reason it's not letting me join :(


    ExOmelas replied · Mar 30, 2018

    @MJTucker sorry, accidentally set it to private. Fixed now :)


    Atticus replied · Mar 30, 2018

    not a problem! thanks for hosting :)


  • ExOmelas
    So, what kind of fun things would people be interested in? I could schedule some time for getting together for word wars, we could do a pad hangout where we all get together and plan our writing, given that it doesn't have to be a brand new project we could even just write bits of our projects. We could talk about the process of Camp NaNo for anyone who hasn't done it or the main event before, we could just hang out in the cabin and get used to that.

    Anything take anyone's fancy?

    Vervain replied · Mar 29, 2018

    I'm down for literally everything.


    BluesClues replied · Mar 29, 2018

    psssst anyone who's available can also totally join the weekly write-in

    Although Bisc it might be a good idea to do a write-in each week yourself during Camp since I think you're in a different time zone, so maybe some people who can't make the ones Holy and I run could show up at yours if they want?


    Nobunaga replied · Mar 29, 2018

    I like the idea of a pad hangout.


    ExOmelas replied · Mar 29, 2018

    That's a good idea, Blue. I'm not sure how often I'll be able to spare that much time as my essay and dissertation proposal deadlines get closer, but I can definitely have a pad open constantly and just remind people about it weekly :)


    BluesClues replied · Mar 30, 2018

    That's what I do when I'm busy :) I just check in now and again to say hi and see how people are doing.
