This year’s NationalNovel Writing Month has officially begun. I’ve registered, entered my firstword counts, and have embarked on a mission not just to help my writing but tohelp others who may need a change of pace or place.
It allhappened quite recently and by happenstance. The volunteer room at CASI becameavailable and I pitched my idea for its use for the next month. That workedout. Getting things set up with NaNoWriMo folks was a bit trickier but it allseems to be in place as well. Now all I need is to get the word out.
The name: SeasonedCitizens is a favorite saying I’ve heard tossed around the Scribe Tribemeetings I’ve attended. I take it to mean a “Senior” citizen whose lifeexperiences have left them with an interesting mix of trials and triumphs. All thingsthat are worthy of putting down on paper by pen or pencil or typed out for a computerjournal.
Write-in is a group action whereby a variety ofwriters come together for the express purpose of increasing their word count.The personal project, whether it’s a novel or short story or whatever, does notmatter. The goal is sitting down and writing: something, somewhere, somehow,with a minimum of distractions.
CASI, Center for Active Senior, Inc, offersa perfect venue for all things that encourage people to exercise, play games, workon crafts, learn something new, or just mingle. The volunteer room is easy tofind, just down the hall from the front desk. Look for the above signfor a Month of Mondays writing action.
Checking outCASI and Seasoned Citizen’s is free.
