Writing Resolutions

December 24th 2008 02:53
We all know about 'New Year's Resolutions', and we all know we don't usually follow them. What are your 'writing resolutions' or goals for the new year? Do you want to find a publisher? Do you want to enter such and such contest? Do you want to write X number of words, or books?

Here are some writing sites to support you throughout the coming year, with all of your writing endeavors:

~My workshop, Really Long Link which is six weeks of planning and six weeks of writing, starting January first.

~Janowrimo, one of the many Nanowrimo offshoots, Really Long Link is next month.

~April Fool's Really Long Link is a similar writing site to Jano and Nano.

~JulNo can be found here: Really Long Link which is great for all us northern hemisphere folks.

~AugNo is one I did this past year and is tons of fun, Really Long Link again great for us northern hemisphere folks.

~SeptNo is a livejournal community to do a Nanowrimo in September Really Long Link

~ShoStoWriMo is like Nano, but here the goal is to write 15, 000 words in short stories. Really Long Link It's a livejournal community once more.

~Forward Motion, where you can sign up for the 2YN-two year novel course-and where I am known as Litharukia: http://fmwriters.com/

~And of course Wriye, Really Long Link which has an amazing community; I'm Litharukia there as well. Come join us!

Another site, DreamWriters, which I am a moderator for, is undergoing some massive changes in terms of the mod team as well as the site itself. More news on that once we've got everything figured out.

I've gotten my first volunteer for a one-page critique; thanks to Alex. That post will hopefully go up tomorrow if I survive Christmas dinner number three. His is online as the first chapter, but due to space concerns on the blog itself, I'm only going to critique the first 250 words or so here.

Thanks for reading; happy X-mas or whatever you're celebrating, good luck if you're not celebrating and are getting dragged into dinners like I am, and good luck with your writing-and trying to write at this time of year!

Moonglow,

That could be fun. Though by the looks of it you already have quite a few blogs.

I'm doing my first ever collaboration; fanfiction, but it'll be fun.
