#1 - I like that your list starts off so strongly, with a loud noise and a bit of dark humour. I also like the irony, that the first sn...

Journal Entry: Mon Nov 9, 2009, 6:11 PM


UPDATE: I got the wrong date! Don't miss the interview with *Friedemann tomorrow, Nov. 10th, at 5pm in #LITplease! /ENDUPDATE


Help me! I'm a lazy bum!

I have less than one month to get all my school stuff done, which includes severals essays/short stories and an exam. On top of that, my house is falling apart!

Ok, so there really isn't anything you can do to help me, other than sending your well wishes. I know I'm going to pass all my courses and pull it all together, I always do, but man is crunch time stressful.

Ok, so the real reason for this journal (yeah, I roped you in with the bold cry for help) is that *ProsePlease's Creative Nonfiction Contest is almost over and we only have like 6 entries so far. That's not bad, but we'd like more! I'm really trying to push nonfiction to a more visible level, trying to get more writers to have a go at the genre they may otherwise find boring and/or self-indulgent. It really isn't! There are a ton of stories that need to be told and they can be told in any way you'd like (aka not self-indulgent OR boring).

The second thing is about *LITplease. Did you know that I'm in charge of *LITplease? The club is not fully functional at this time, as I'm waiting for groups to be available, but it will eventually be the joint home of ProsePlease and PoetryPlease. Currently, only the chatroom #LITplease is fully run out of it, and that's why I'm writing. The Q&A sessions have been up and running for a couple of weeks now! The first session was with Lili (=KneelingGlory), the second with =Osiristhrasher06, and now we're gearing up to interview *Friedemann live on Tuesday, Nov. 10 at 5pm EST. *Friedemann is very special because he is one of the admins in charge of the Nonfiction Nook over at ProsePlease, on top of being an all around great guy.

See how I brought that all back around to nonfiction? :D

So, please please please help spread the word about all of the above!

Finally, what do you think of the nifty icon I created for *LITplease? :iconlitplease: Nice huh?

One final note: Due to said crunch time, there may not be a Lit List this week. Sorry!

I’m here to tell you there are angels and demons among us. Those bedtime stories you were told, the bumps in the night you heard: they're all true. Every damn movie about werewolves and vampires dueling it out…All real.
