This weekend (Saturday 11/19 to Sunday 11/20) is the SLUMPerparty!
The SLUMPerparty was created in 2009 as a way to fight off the nefarious Week 3 Slump that occurs a little after the halfway point every year.
It happens to a lot of wrimos: maybe you haven’t quite made it to 25,000 yet and feel you’re just too far behind to finish, this year. Or maybe you’ve gotten past 25k but, with no end in sight, your progress feels too turtle-like and you wish you’d maybe written that OTHER story instead …
Don’t despair! We are here to help get you through the slump!
At 7pm on Saturday Nov, 19th at Writer House (508 Dale Ave.) wrimos will gather. And write.
All night.
Some people sleep a little (so if you want to be comfy, please bring a sleeping bag/blanket/pillow!), some not at all, but everybody gets some major writing done!
The next morning we’ll leave for the Tavern at 10 for celebratory pancakes.
If you’d like to write but want to retreat back to your own bed – please do!
If you want to skip the party but still want to meet us for pancakes on Sunday morning – please do!
We’ll probably do a pizza order around 7:30pm, so if you’d like to partake please bring two bucks. As far as snacks (aka Writer Fuel) go, we have lots of sweets left over from the potluck that you can partake of free of charge – and we’re well stocked in the coffee (and half & half) and cocoa departments, now, too.
Good luck, writers!
Your MLs,
Sophia (swiftdust – sophia.volpi@gmail.com) and
