Queer Writers Unite!
Hey All -
Wondering if anyone would be interested in attending the Saints and Sinners Literary Festival in May or the Tennessee Williams Literary Festival in March? Anyone ever been to either festival? I kinda remember Arwen might have gone to Saints and Sinners but can't recall exactly. Anoyone doing NaNoWriMo in November? Anyway - This thread is for us! Let's support each other!

I've tried to do NaNoWri a few times and want to try it again (now that I'm settled and looks like November might be quiet for me).

ArtDeco! It is an AMAZING experience! I did it a few years back and didnt finish but it gave me some amazing motivation. This is my profile over there: http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/235614 We can all "friend" each other and keep up with our stats. It also lets you post snippets of your work and is a GREAT tool to make good writing connections. I hope you decide to do it! Im super busy and will probably do it but I highly doubt I'll be able to finish it unless I get crazed and manic. Just the motivation to write every day for 30 days is enough to get me exited about it

Well I can assure you all, that I will be writting absolute crap. But the idea of purge is exciting. I mean, it's gonna be like a colonic for my brain. So happy.

I've attempted NaNoWriMo several times over the years and it's probably the hardest thing I've ever done. My writing style just doesn't fit well with it and I find it more frustrating than anything else!
I have a number of friends who do it every year and it's just an amazing experience for them, so I encourage everyone to try it at least once. Well, everyone who writes, that is!

Hey All!
Is everyone getting ready for NaNoWriMo?! If you have never participated in NaNoWriMo it is a GREAT opportunity to renew your creativity or just a fun way to do a personal writing challenge! The way it works is that you commit to the "contest" and try to write a 50,000 word novel from scratch in one month's time. You "win" when you upload your work to the NaNoWriMo robotic word counter and it verifies. Tons of people participate and it really is pretty fun! I'm already getting ready - buying extra coffee supplies, index cards for note-taking, and dusting off my trusty "inspiration blanket" (it's a raggedy blanket that I've had for years but I like to cover my legs with it while I'm doing my "serious" writing). Gemme and I have friended one another and there are a few other names out there that I recognize - Would love to see more of you participating  Besides, some of your work could be used for our anthology!

cheater cheater pumpkin eater!!
Yes, I know it's not November 1st. Here is the start to my novel. Like I said, it's all crap. LOL
----------------------------------------------------------- He began by telling me how much I wanted it. How much I would like it, the feel of his cock inside me. Turns out he was right, but not in the way he thought. And so it began, my journey towards love, if that's what it can be called, in the back seat of an old musty car parked in an abandoned school parking lot. Everyone had always said that love didnt come easy, but it didnt seem all that complicated to me. A game really, the business of love. One I would learn to master, mostly. If you are smart you will draw it out, because as soon as it begins, it's almost over. I can always see the end from the start. It's the middle that I'm curious about. When I was a child love meant pain, hurt, abondonment, and abuse. You loved someone by striking them in the face with a closed fist. Speaking profanities at the top of your lungs. Humiliation, and degredation. I thought anything different was not real, how could it be? At least when someone is beating you, you have thier full attention. Thier deepest emotions are being played out on your body, mind and soul. It's a gift, like the socks and pajamas you open at christmas. Even if it isnt what you wanted, something is better than nothing,and at least you werent completely forgotten. Later on, I realized that not everyone knew that kind of love, the love you dont speak about. It's not something you go shouting from the rooftops. It's not the love you are supposed to aspire to. Love is pretty, shiney, and everyone wants it. It cannot be bought, sold, or bribed. It takes it place among whomever, and whereever. That's what everyone said anyway, but I beg to differ. What is love to one is not love to another, and if you learn how you can manufacture your own brand of love anytime, anywhere. The kind that you feel safe in, the kind you recognize. That's what true love really is. It is your own story, that begins with your roots, moves slowly toward your center, and shines bright at the top. Where you begin telling this story, what part you show to the world is another matter all together. Exposing your roots can be dangerous. People dont love roots, they love what you show them. c IrishGrrl 2010 |

.gif "Say What?") *smacks head* I knew I should write all my log ins down somewhere. You're doing great, Irish. I liked what you wrote. I think mine, once I get in there, will pretty much just be free form thinking, basically. I don't have the dedication and discipline necessary for structured writing. Maybe I can get away with doing a book of poetry...
