Introducing Novel Quest!

I get it - NaNo has disappointed us all and as a former ML I have seen and felt so much this past year. Some of what I've felt is grief, some is rage.

There's also a little bit of hope - can something better be built?

A bunch of MLs in the Chicago area (myself included) are trying to build that. We're calling it Illinois Novel Quest, and while the leaders are in Illinois many of our events are hybrid meaning other writers can join us on Zoom or Discord!

We're proud and grateful to our local writing community and library partners - they all agreed to break ties with NaNo and work with us in solidarity back in March 2024.

One of the things we've baked into Novel Quest is flexibility. 50K in 30 days isn't for everyone, and I've rebelled more than once myself. Whether you're editing a book, writing something new, or working on a small project, we'll have trackers and write-ins and a community you can join.

We'll mainly be using substack to communicate (subscribe here) because it allows us to have public-facing communication for sharing writing tips and encouragement as well as more private-facing options when we send out web links for the 30 some events we have planned. Some of them will be in person including at least one day where we are racing trains into the city of Chicago and a library-sponsored pizza party.

I know there are tons of other grassroots efforts and other events popping up this fall, but wanted to share this one.

This is a Dragon Quest joke

#this joke isn't in the novel #and it's been so long since i saw the anime i never noticed this #my special skill is finding dragon quest references in manga and anime #suzumiya haruhi no yuutsu #the melancholy of haruhi suzumiya #kyon #haruhi suzumiya

Between the events I'm hosting with my fellow Quest Guides for Illinois Novel Quest and other writers volunteering to host write-ins, we currently have 59 events scheduled.

I am going to be seeing these people a lot next month as I work on Adventure List edits.

Destiny crack AU idea :

Random civilian in the city comes across a piece of darkness technology that got misplaced or whatever, they end up having a philosophical conversation with the Witness and gives it a crisis that completely diverts the final shape. No one else knows why the Witness is no longer interested in its previous goals and the random civilian just goes on with life.

#luna’s brainbox #destiny #destiny 2 #guardian 1 : Is that the Witness..? Painting?#guardian 2 : I think our jumpships water might have been drugged we should go back to the city.#The Witness mumbling to itself : There is value in contrasts- it is only with pain that joy may be experienced.#in our quest to find purpose we sought to destroy all purpose and meaning in the universe #guardian 1 : Yeah definitely been drugged #btw I don’t care if this conflicts with some canonical opinion with the Witness because I’m here for fun. It’s a crack concept not a novel.

Obi-wan immediately after he and Siri rescue Ferus from being kidnapped: Why doesn't Ferus smile at me when I walk in a room like Anakin does? Why doesn't Ferus tease me and make snarky quips like Anakin does? I miss Anakin so much, I need to find him right now immediately, I sure do hate being separated from him.

#i got tagged in a game about recent photos but i got so DISTRACTED by this my most recent photo that i needed it to have it's own post #gurl PLS be normal #my big hot take is that obi wan is equally if not MORE codependent on anakin as anakin is on obi wan and i'm starting that agenda now #obi wan kenobi #obi-wan kenobi #obikin #jedi quest #the school of fear #jedi quest the school of fear #jude watson #sw novels #star wars novels #star wars #otp: more intimate than lovers #wizard #pt
