[note to self: do something to update the writercon page at fanlore!]

okay, no that's out of the way. so...

OMG OMG OMG! IT'S ALMOST NOVEMBER!

THAT MEANS IT'S TIME FOR WRISOMIFU!

If you've never participated in the collective misery that is wrisomifu, you really should try it. It's... well. I don't know how to explain it to someone who's never experienced it! It's one of my favorite times of year. Not because of the writing that gets done (because let's face it, that's not the most important part, no matter what we may say), but the wonderful sense of community I get from being a part of this group. And as you all should know by now, I'm in fandom for the community first and foremost.

But even if you don't give a shit about making friends and getting that warm fuzzy community vibe, you might want to check it out anyway for the whole low-pressure writing encouragement thing we've got going on. You're allowed (and highly encouraged) to whine as much as you want.

Oh, right, the official deal is to write for 10 minutes every day in November and check in about it. It's a locked community on LJ, but you can sign up here in thirdbird's post or here in fitofpique's post! Signups last until midnight Oct 31st.

Aaaand, my computer keeps restarting itself and thank goodness for the saved draft feature, but I'm not gonna push my luck anymore, so that's all I have to say for now.

Heya. Thanks for the link to that Fanlore page. Motivated me to edit a little bit about 2009 (since it really shouldn't have been in future tense). :)

That's about all I was going to do, really. :)
