Attention Fellow Anti-Nano Cultists!

[naomi_jay]

It has been brought to my attention that Anti-Nano is going well, and that some of you are enjoying it. Me too! I'm loving reading everyone's excerpts, and seeing everyone's progress, not to mention the warm glow of satisfaction I get from running a cult. So, shall we keep it going?

out_totheblack has suggested we run Anti-Nano past the end of November and turn it into a Winter-Write-A-Thon (or WWAT, which seems appropriate). I am totally up for this - I'm getting loads of work done this month and would love to keep that momentum going, and nothing motivates me as much as other writers getting stuff done too. So how about it? I suggest we keep going until either the end of December or the end of January. I know December gets to be busy what with holidays and Christmas and families and all that pesky stuff, so having January there to pick up the pace again suits me.

Let me know what you all think - and if you're not Anti-Nano-ing but you are jealous of how awesome we all are, feel free to join the WWAT!

This is an awesome idea. *thumbs up*

LOL, maybe we can even think of a WWAT icon.

[naomi-jay.livejournal.com]

Yes! Anyone with art skillz is more than welcome to make an icon :)

[out-totheblack.livejournal.com]

That would not be me.

[naomi-jay.livejournal.com]

Or me. I can about draw stick-men.

[out-totheblack.livejournal.com]

I can draw a good map or city plan for a game, but icons are not me.

That takes actual skill.

Love it! Might actually get the WIP finished by Christmas with you lot behind me. ;)

[naomi-jay.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you can!

OOOH! YES!

I vote for January- and for keeping the weekly exerpts. This makes me make time for writing because posting is expected.

Would it be worth making a community for this?

[out-totheblack.livejournal.com]

That could be a good idea.

[naomi-jay.livejournal.com]

I'll get to it! ^_^

I am totally jealous of how awesome you all are.

November is a terrible month for creative process for me, what with finals and papers being due.

[naomi-jay.livejournal.com]

Would December/January be any better? When do all your finals and papers finish?

[eldestmuse.livejournal.com]

YES, actually. My last class is the Tuesday after thanksgiving so I'm really looking forward to the December / January period.

[alex-beecroft.livejournal.com]

Hurray! I'm all for this :)

[sandrawickham.livejournal.com]

I'm in! (out_totheblack sent me!)

Had a computer glitch just now..if this posts twice, my apologies. Hoping it will at least post once!

[spiderling.livejournal.com]

I will stick around for this! Maybe I will finish something by the end!

Sounds good! I'm halfway through my story and at least two more months would hopefully see me get it finished!
Even if it is summer over here, I think I can deal with a WWAT!!!
