I'm moving my writing journal to Dreamwidth; below are the relevant links:

♠ The new writing journal is feng. Contents will be similar to lilacfield's current ones - links, memes, and the like. The actual fanfics and other writings are posted on heavensword. I will still use my LJ account for commenting and modding communities.

♠ If you'd like to follow the entries on feng without leaving LJ, the LJ feed is fengfeed, courtesy of rural_juror. LJ users can comment on DW entries using their LJ identities. If you're interested in getting a DW account, I still have six invite codes.

fandomaid is holding an auction for Sandy and my thread is here. I'm offering the usual, but feel free to request something not listed there if you know I can do it.

(I'm posting this in the middle of a NaNo write-in, will get back to writing now)

We seek to provide a space where fans, especially chromatic fans, can and are encouraged to critically produce, consume and discuss fanworks centered around chromatic cultures, characters and people.

Rebuttal to an author's post against NaNoWriMo. The bolded paragraphs are great points to remember outside of November.
Free NaNo e-book downloads, because we all need to procrastinate.
Save my writing: keep it interesting and stay engaged. "Too much outlining can kill your interest." I did feel a bit bored with my NaNo story after I outlined everything from beginning to end. Then I remembered that wuxia characters often get poisoned. Nfu.

NaNo is dragging along. I usually don't feel any great compulsion to write too much before the 20th. A deplorable habit. But finally I've found a title for the story.

mini_wrimo is all about a minimum of 100 words per day during November. New members are accepted on October 29 at the latest, and right now it's still the 29th in some parts of the world.
Become a NaNoWriMo rebel, because it's not like you'll lack company.
wrisomifu is a "writing group for underachievers who enjoy the company of same. To join, all you need to do is commit to writing (original fic, fanfic, to do lists, your thesis, your memoirs - anything!) for at least ten minutes each day for the entire month of November. And you are permitted - encouraged even! - to complain bitterly about every single word." It's now open for business. You can find the sign-ups links on the community userinfo.
