getyourwordsout. Based around the idea that the only way to write is to, you know, write, getyourwordsout is designed to help writers stay motivated throughout the year by offering a goal and a community. There are 4 levels of pledges (200K, 250K, 300K, and 350K) that you can pledge to write in 2009. We're counting words from any non-bloggy writing including original fiction, fanfic, nonfiction essays, scripts, poetry, songs, um greeting cards? Basically anything that can be considered a literary work (oh yes, I just called fanfic "literary").

sopdetly and I are spearheading this thing so you can expect group word wars, prompts, and other little motes of advice and encouragement. (Dudes, I have ideas.)The introduction and guidelines are here, and once you join the community you can make your pledge. I hope some of you will join us or at least spread the word. We're planning to close the comm on January 1, so you have to join before then!
Get Your Words Out!
(Yes, I totally stole the comm name from the Wonderfalls episode "Karma Chameleon." FTW! \o/ )

DANGER.
I may be making up the frost warning. I appropriated it from
I need a "the truth will make you naked icon."
Where would you find cause to use something like that?
Okay, maybe that's not saying much.
=op
I love that so much, I almost want to join....even though I'm never around and even though I haven't written anything in about seven years. Hah.
I love the idea. It's another example among the multitudes for your awesomeness.
I foresee great fun and success for the comm :)
You are not alone--for various, some pretty dramatic reasons (illness and death of my spouse, then falling head-over-heels for someone new), the last six years have been very unwriterly for me, too. And that is after selling two freakin' books, geesh! NUTS! And I say ENOUGH!!!
I hope you jump in!
(butting out again)
*runs over to join*
I'm with a tiny post-nano group that has decided to stay together, but this looks much crazier.
Off I go!
Wonderful, em!
mmmmmmmm uuuuuuuuuuuu
Support, encouragement, etc sounds good. I'd LIKE to sign up... but...
Shame you don't have a 120k or 150k pledge. 10k words or so a month would allow for a couple of months of health-fail :(
On the other hand... no job...(;.;) I'll have TIME...
On the other other hand, no job may well mean no net. I don't know yet. (;_;) While I'm living with my parents I'll only be allowed to access emails. :( And YES, my Dad tells me what I can and cannot do... since it's on his computer and he has net-fear. Sites like LJ leave him open to hackers, he thinks. *sigh*
Shit.
I don't know what to do. :( I'll shut up now.
