This kind of 'work' really appeals to my nature. I love categorising things and putting things in their correct place. *happy sigh*
middle of June 2014 , page 52 (due to stuff being moved september had made its way to page 46) that'll do before work .... back tonight for more... toodle pip
I'm just about to pick up where @Tenderiser left off, which is May 2010. Still a little way to go, but we're doing well. @big soft moose - let me know if you're anywhere near me by now (if you carried on), so we don't overlap in the middle.
Splendid. I'll keep plugging away then. (What does that actually mean? Well, I know what it means. But why does it mean what it means?)
Apparently (according to google) it comes from Captain Plugge's continual playing of records on radio normandie in the 1930s
I've just read a post from someone in 2009 who had been writing a story since he was 13, and was 17 at the time. It had taken him four years to get where he was at that point. He'll be 25 now. I wonder if he made it.
Guys, you've been amazing! Let's put the project on pause for a moment, so we can sort through all the reports and move them to the right areas. Huge thanks!
Ok @KaTrian, I was gonna start up again now I’ve eaten but I’ll hold off @Tenderiser I’ll PM where I got to in case you’re ready so start up again before I am.
You guys are obsessive! And it's kinda clever of @Wreybies to set you loose just when he happened to be going away for a little while... have fun moving all the posts, other mods!
Its a good thing I've been off line all day... mind you it makes you think - in the first day of this Wrey was keeping up with me and mash to the point that stuff was being moved the moment i reported it.... unless he has some sort of special admin fu not available to everyone else he must have done literally nothing else that day BTW I've not done much today - coming from the front end i'm at Jun 2014
and also rename inspiration "motivation and inspiration" and use it to house all the "I've lost my motivation/can't write/has writers block/can't finish my book" etc, threads
Speaking of Insights and Inspiration, it is a misused section that will have to be cleaned out (as well as renamed) or repurposed at some point. See the description at the top of the sub-forum (above the threads) for the intended purpose.
To be honest virtually every section needs a move around and clean... with the possible exception of by the genre every board in the top quartile has posts in it which belong somewhere else (It's a shame a few of us can't have limited powers to do it so you guys don't have to, but wrey has already explained the technical issues with that)
I think the description should change rather than the contents. It sounds so pretentious and elitist! If someone has an insight into writing, who am I (or anyone else) to tell them it isn't insightful enough? If someone has an idea for how to get inspired, who are we to say, "You really think you're the first person to listen to music to get you in a writing mood?" IMO that's not what WF is about.
