NaNoWriMo and Art Every Day Month (and Hesses' new subsystem)

[mythochromos]

Hi, member of a guest subsystem of House Hesson here...we'll likely be sharing the body for a long time, so if you see some names that aren't familiar or aren't ever on their official system roster, that's why. We're using this icon to show who the guests are. (If anyone's curious, I'm Shainin's mother.)

Anyway...after some prodding, Hesses and we decided to give NaNoWriMo another try. This will be our third year. They had an idea for a story about a gateway system, with the protagonist splitting his time between inner worlds and the outside world, and this is a prequel to it.

And today we found something in our RSS feed that's also really tempting: Art Every Day Month. Leah, the coordinator, also does a year-round activity called Creative Every Day, which you can find out about on the same site if you're interested. Neither one requires a finished piece of art every day, so we might take up the AEDM challenge too. If we feel especially masochistic. >.>

Anyone else thinking about NaNo or AEDM? We'll try to do update posts and would love to see what others are doing too.

We actually are thinking of NaNo, concocting together Aisha and Susan's timelines into a single relatively homogeneous storyline about the impact of superhumans in the real world. Or that's what I was told by Gustavus Aurelius at any rate.

We're thinking about it. There's a story Sarah was to be wishing to overhaul, and while it is not playing by official nano rules, it is close enough for our liking. Especially since it may well end up being more of a rewrite than an overhaul after a time.

Even if she does not turn it in officially, it will at least give us something to do.

Lila does Wrimo every year. At least one of them would be in on it.

NaNo is completely out. We might think about AEDM, though...even though we probably won't MAKE every day, we'd love to get as damned close as possible...
