SoCNoC is Almost Upon Us
I haven't written much about KiwiWriter's SoCNoC yet this year but I have two reasons why.
The first is that I've been out of action, both mentally (hard at work), physically (moving house) and electronically (a myriad of problems getting back online).
But the good thing is, I don't actually have to write much for SoCNoC this year because other people are doing it for us.
Here's a few examples:
- SoCNoC and a Contest Winner (The Book Lady)
- SoCNoC blogging (Saraste)
- Sadistic muses and un-normalness (Griffin Asher)
- SubtleKissesInTheDark
- Writing Guides in Review (SpeakCoffeeToMe)
- New Beginnings (Ross the Writer)
- SoCNoC approaches... (autiotalo)
- No, really-isn't there an off switch or something? (Pam Writes Romance)
...but the best site goes to redfox for a dedicated mini-site:
You also know when things are taking off when people out there start making things for your site you just didn't expect :-)
In the real life side of things, we had write-ins in Wellington last year but this year we expect to have write-ins in Wellington, Dunedin and Palmerston North, as well as a NZ on-line kick-off party and an American one too :-)
For the techies and the stats people. May has already been a quite fantastic month. We have:
- 87 participants
- gotten over 20,000 hits on the site this month
- had over 2,000 visitors
- and gained over 120 new sign-ups
So far, it's going really well but hopefully June is going to be even better.
So if you're still pondering whether to write your first novel, why not just sign up anyway, accept the challenge and see what happens. You'll probably be surprised at what you can do :-)
