    <content type="html">Finished making a Poems! card for another request!&amp;nbsp; Starting to get some entries posted from card holders too at the forum.&amp;nbsp; Great stuff!&amp;nbsp; Come check WdC out- many resources, competitions, and more- https://www.writing.com/main/forums/item_id/2153581-Genre-Poems-A-Writers-Bingo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to join in, you must have a WdC account- they have account levels ranging from free to several different levels of paid accounts.&amp;nbsp; Sort of like Dreamwidth, but more community orientated.&amp;nbsp; I encourage folks to check WdC out.&amp;nbsp; I will offer this bit of advice-you will only get out of WdC what you put into WdC.&amp;nbsp; If you are &lt;u&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;just&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/u&gt; looking for a place to post your work- this isn't the site for you. &amp;nbsp;Stay here, or go to Wattpad, or even Ao3.&amp;nbsp; If you want to actually join in a writing &lt;em&gt;community&lt;/em&gt; instead of just looking for comments or kudos for your work, and you are seriously looking to improve your writing craft, WdC waits you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WdC is open to fan fiction but more geared towards original fiction and poetry.&amp;nbsp; They also have several features that are beneficial to two or more authors working together on a project.&amp;nbsp; They also have a feature that reminds me of the old 'choose your own adventure' books where a person can start writing, post some options and other people can continue the tale.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of fan fiction- I&amp;nbsp;have decided to edit and then continue one of my WIPs from Ao3.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=paqtesm&amp;ditemid=1758" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>

    <content type="html">Registered last night to volunteer at the local MS&amp;nbsp;Walk taking place towards the end of the month.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;nbsp;won't be walking, rather handing out t-shirts to walkers and such.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Made a Poems! card for a new participant in the writing challenge I&amp;nbsp;am running over at WdC.&amp;nbsp; Haven't had a taker for a Genre! card yet.&amp;nbsp; This is National Poetry month so lots of folks are participating in some form of NaPoWriMo, so that could be the reason.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For writers like myself, this month is also one of two Camp NaNoWriMo months (I think the second is in July).&amp;nbsp; I&amp;nbsp;am working on two related projects- four short stories and an outline for the novel&amp;nbsp;I&amp;nbsp;want to pull together in July.&amp;nbsp; The short stories all involve characters that will be in the novel.&amp;nbsp; So far so good- on track and schedule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Working on the inspiration challenge for &lt;span style='white-space: nowrap;'&gt;&lt;a href='https://starfleet-hq.dreamwidth.org/profile'&gt;&lt;img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png' alt='[community profile] ' width='16' height='16' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href='https://starfleet-hq.dreamwidth.org/'&gt;&lt;b&gt;starfleet_hq&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, as I have mentioned before, forgot how fun a land comm could be!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=paqtesm&amp;ditemid=1413" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
