Hello again!
Since we are such a scattered lot this year, and since some of you have expressed some "Stranger Danger" fears, I would like to open up the option of having online meet-ups throughout the month!
These would be set-up times, possibly several times a week, where we can all meet online and help each other out, or rant about our successes and issues and whatever else strikes us at the time.
1) Last year, many of us used MSN to do this. I don't know if that's a great place to do it, but we can meet there (I think there's a limit to the number of people in the convo though?). Does anyone know of a good, free IM system we can all use?
2) At any other time, the following is a list of my online contact info where you can ask me anything, or suggest anything, or discuss anything you don't want mde public in the forums:
EMAIL
chocobo.fire@gmail.com
IM's
GMail chat to the above address
MSN: marimeya_kaburagi@hotmail.com
QQ: 860685437
If your interested in conversing in RT online with other Wrimos in the China region, post your IM info into this thread.
Also, in past years, we have had Wrimos add each other to their LiveJournals. Although I can't access mine when on the mainland (phooey!), I can when I am in Hong Kong. My LJ SN is: Relica
I have a BlogSpot I CAN access up here which is: http://legendsanddestiny.blogspot.com/
If you want to post your writing blogs here to share bits and bobs of your NaNo piece, do so also in this thread.
Cheers!
~Shanny, China ML

IM Info (I'm always always always on MSN): cara-leong95@hotmail.com
My Blogspot (which I update almost daily although most of it has nothing to do with NaNo right now. It might... when NaNo starts): http://quotidian-.blogspot.com
How about word wars?
----------Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem
In gentle numbers time so idly spent;
Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem
And gives thy pen both skill and argument.

My MSN is miki2003_43@hotmail.com. I'm not on it a lot, but if enough people reply to this thread, and if enough people have MSN, I will get on more during November...
I'm not too comfortable giving out my e-mail address (which is also my Gmail chat) but you guys can access my blog: twentysixleadsoldiers.blogspot.com. I don't know how much NaNoWriMo stuff I'll be posting on it, because I've never done NaNoWriMo before... I'll probably post some chapters of my story and stuff. Yeah...
By the way, can I just say how great it is to be on a forum where people actually spell properly :-).

Hello!
I have added both of your blogspot accounts and MSN accounts to my list.
And as for spelling. . . that really won't last very long. :P I am a notoriously bad speller. The dictionary and spell checker are my beer buddies. :P

Those usually spring up at random during OL/RL get togethers.
But I suppose we can schedule as few. :D
Any day/time preference?

Assuming I remember to turn on my IMs....
MSN: snitchcat@hotmail.com
Skype: Snitchcat
Email and other information I don't give out anymore. Too much spam.
LJ: http://snitchcat.livejournal.com
Blogspot: http://snitchcat.blogspot.com
Btw, there's really only one Snitchcat hanging around on the Net, particularly in the writing community. It's generally me; if it's not, it's a doppelganger and should be greeted with extreme caution. (Of course, it may be one of my alternate personalities has escaped again...)
