Hey, guys, it's Mai! 8D I was thinking that since this support group is more an on-again-off-again thing, we should try and do something to make it a more regular support group than just a pop-in-whenever-we-remember-it-exists thing.

Soooooo... SUGGESTIONS. VOTES. WHATEVER. This is a support group for the PEOPLE. 8D I also think that maybe we could have "officers" (or whatever). People who would be in charge of keeping this support group running through various means... I don't know exactly what these means would be, however, so we'd have to vote on that or something.

Once we have a definite idea on what the support group's goal and aspirations are going to be, and how we KNOW we can keep this thing a helpful place that writers can keep coming back to (for help, just saying "I wrote something!" or "I can't write today!"), I was thinking of asking a mod to add a few posts to the front page so we can organize all our ideas and plans into posts for people to easily see and refer back to.

What do you all think?

EDIT: Okay, these are some ideas I've got from reading through the thread:

1. Create a group goal for number of words to write per day or week
2. Create a personal goal for number of words to write per day or week
3. Post blurbs of most recent writing and get feedback
4. Word Wars--definition here
5. Randomly assigned writing partners (bounce ideas back and forth, share blurbs, or just chat)
6. Build up writing resources in the Writing Resources thread
7. Have signatures linking back to the group to hopefully draw in more interested people.
