The Fourth Annual YWStival: Shakespeare Edition!


Dec. 14th-21st

Image


Well hello there! The modsquad is very excited to announce that Monday, December 14th-Monday, December 21st we will be holding our fifth YWStival! What is the YWSitval,you might ask?

The YWStival was created in January of 2012 by @LadySpark. It is a week long celebration of YWS itself. We focus on different areas on the site, introduce new fun things to the users, have an official SB, hold contests and host all kinds of fun and games in the chatroom and on the site as a whole during that time. This year, we will have a theme of William Shakespeare!

What's so special about Shakespeare?
When we were trying to come up with ideas for the next YWStival, the topic of Shakespeare came up, and we basically ran with it. We'll have Shakespeare themed discussions, contests and the main event is a Shakespeare Radio Play.
YWSers, (both mods and not mods) have come together to create a wonderful radio play for you, which will be broadcast on blogtalk radio on Saturday, December 19th @ 8:00 PM EST with a possible Q&A on that Sunday. We're really excited for you to hear it!


So basically, here's what you want to do:
-Keep checking this thread for updates!
-Keep a lookout for anything with YWStival in the title
-Subscribe to the Official YWStival Club
-GET SUPER PUMPED FOR WILLY SHAKES!
