I couldn't think of a better title for this... "Promotions" sounded too impersonal and... well, sane. We writers are a crazy lot. Besides, promotions gives the wrong impression, I believe. Basically this thread could be for talking about a super cool new... I don't know, name generator or something. Basically anything we find immensly helpful/interesting to our writing processes. Or squealing about how we got published, or- I guss it's kind of a catch all for everything that would otherwise have a little lonely thread of its own. Besides, with NaNo (or InNo ) coming up, helpful writing resources are great... right? *crickets* Consider it the equivalent of a Writer's Desk Random Posts thread. Um, yeah. I believe I've probably rambled on for long enough now... so... um... *backs out of the room slowly*

Ooh! Great idea. Let's talk about Word Wars. There isn't a thread for that.

Ooh, yes! I've done tons of word wars! I'm in a group for them on facebook, and there's a pinterest board, but it really isn't that active sadly

You repost one of the pictures asking for a word war and then the actual war takes place in the comments. I can try and invite you if you want

Oh, it won't let me invite anyone I thought it would, but I guess it doesn't work since I'm not the creator of the board

Faith Blum does a monthly weekend word war on Facebook. I've joined in a couple of times. Next month she's doing two because of NaNoWriMo.

That's funny that you mentioned that Brie D, because I was going to do so too! I haven't participated in them, but they seem to work well for those who join.

Oh, I've participated in those. I think I've done all of them so far, they really are very helpful On another note, there's another forum that I'm a member of (it's also made with proboards) for Christian writers to chat, brainstorm, ask for advice, etc. The thing is, there are only about 13 members, and it's really inactive (the last post was the thirteenth, and I'm the only member who's been on in the last few days). I just thought it'd be great if I could bring some of the writers here over there too It's: writinginthelight.freeforums.net
