A meatspace friend just told me she is writing poetry and wants to find a writing group online. Does any one have a suggestion?
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

not really...tried a few on Facebook, but they're Facebook groups, with all that implies. You might ask Victor...he knows more poets.

Thanks, she found Victor's Fb group. I hope she can connect to what she wants through that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh the anxiety that would give me

Also, I'm too slow. most automated things do not like my rhythm at all.

I think I am going to try to do NaNoWriMo this year. At least try to write a bunch of words. I've got a project just barely started and what it needs is a shitty first draft, so why not

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I promised I'd do NaNoWriMo this year, because I'm unemployed and what else have I got to do, but it's already Nov 2 and I haven't even started. I have 6 hours to write 3200 words.
Piece of cake, right?

Because books.
The best way to do NaNo, especially if you haven't done it in a while, is just to make a commitment to write every day (if you can!) and see what you have at the end of the month.
I feel like to actually produce even a very rough first draft of a novel in a month, you have to do a lot of preplanning (prewriting, I guess) in terms of plot and character. Or that could just be me!
I should actually try the "write every day" thing this month just to finish the proposal I've been working on for umpty million years. That would be a good thing.

That makes sense, Amy. I did set the word count goal just to encourage me to push myself, but I'm not going to be too disappointed if I don't hit it as long as I write something.
I've been thinking about these characters for a long time and if I can get a fair amount of it out of my head and onto the page I'll be happy, really.
Go, Zen, churn out some words!
