Bist du Mitglied in einer Schreibgruppe?

Nein. Ich hatte damals mit dem #NaNoWriMo angefangen, aber das war ja nicht eine Gruppe in dem Sinne.
Ansonsten habe ich ab und zu Schreibabende mit einer guten Freundin. Davon abgesehen, keine fixe Schreib-Gruppe.

#WritersCoffeeClub Jun. 15 — Have you ever challenged yourself to write without editing? What were the results?

I sometimes journal by #freewriting, where part of the point is to write by stream-of-consciousness without any editing. I tried to work that way with #NaNoWriMo but ended up burning out lol. It turns out I'm much happier and more productive when I can do some minimal quality control and think through what I'm writing. I do put off more involved edits until the next stage, but writing without any editing at all isn't for me outside of specific, short exercises like freewriting.

I’ve just learned that #NaNoWriMo is… dead and gone. This is so sad… :(

I have so many positive memories connected to it.

Nanowrimo helped me grow so many important writing skills. It helped me to become the writer and editor that I am today.

The Tasmanian nanowrimo community are still quite active in Launceston. We have been publishing a yearly zine for the last decade (this is the 10th year) some discussion hinted at not publishing another nanowrimo zine but it was decided by consensus that we would do one last nanowrimo zine since it was our 10th year. I suggested we do a second zine to segue into a new era - which is the link I posted above - checking to see if we can accept non Tasmanian writers! #nanowrimo #zine #writingcommunity #tasmania

Moving on from Nanowrimo, I am on a team of writers making a Tassie writers’ zine for the Hobart Small Press Zine on 4 October. We are taking contributions of 200-300 word flash fiction on the topic of “new” (no more nanowrimo!).Artwork also welcome. No payment because we are all volunteers having a moderate amount of fun doing this 😜 The zines will be sold by gold coin donation at the fair to cover the cost of table fee, travel and printing. More info on the google doc. I will post below about the nanowrimo history of this team. #nanowrimo #tasmania #zine #writingcommunity

#WritersCoffeeClub 3 - Have you ever done a writing challenge? How did it go?

I've had a successful #NaNoWriMo in 2014 but burned out from the experience. ljwrites.blog/posts/nanowrimo- I've also completed the first draft of the big WIP Book 1 with a #dailyWriting habit, which was more to my pace but took a lot of energy. I'd like to make creative writing/research a part of daily routine again as life settles down.

I've done contests and exchanges for #fanfic, original fic, and #poetry. A few I'm particularly proud of are two short works of #historicalFiction and an Eliza/Charlotte one-shot (Pride and Prejudice). They were good opportunities to stretch myself and produce new work such as sonnets and English-language sijo, which I wouldn't have done on my own. Fundamentally I think my best work comes from self-driven projects, but I welcome new challenges when I have room for them.

Since moving away from after the crazy occurances, it's time to write in a new challenge!

Since #NaNoWriMo's website just went down, I think it's a good time for me to start up a second round of development towards #WritingMonth, my free and open source alternative goal tracking/sharing site.

To help me prioritize my work, what features would y'all like to see the most? Here are a few commonly-requested features I have on my list:

Any of those that stand out?

So nanowrimo is officially ded. Even though it died a nasty death, it did bring me a heap of positives. I finished my first novel during a nanowrimo season in 2017 and I met the most amazing writing community here in Launceston. RIP nanowrimo. You were so good until you weren’t and now you are no more #nanowrimo #WritingCommunity

NaNoWriMo (the org that popularised National Novel Writing Month) is no more!

(That's the thing that people like me used to try and use as motivation to write a load of words in a short space of time.)

Now that I have (or will soon have back) a #typewriter, #NaNoWriMo is dead. It would have been the perfect excuse to use it more! Are there cool alternatives? I know that for a time there was a #TypewriterBrigade, is that still alive?
