Hello Champions, I’m beginning this lovely morning with an update on NaNoWriMo for me!
It’s going well! I was ready to strangle Evariste this morning, but I’m hopeful you guys will enjoy the story. It seems like I’m on target–I’ve got about 40,000 words done. However, this book will very likely turn out longer than the planned 80k, so I’m trying not to stress. (Don’t be too impressed by that word count, by the way. I just added the first scene from Sleeping Beauty, which was a free 5,000 words to me. Ahahah.)
But if all goes on track, when Snow White launches in mid December, you will not only have the title of this first Angelique book, but the first chapter included as a sample as well!
Next topic: there’s been a lot of great discussion going on in comments of past and current posts, and for some time you guys have asked if there is a way I could open some kind of chat/discussion area so you can more easily talk to each other–some of you were even discussing self-organizing one.
I finally have a moment to breathe, though, so I thought I would offer to make either 1) a Facebook Group (which you guys can freely post in and will also have a chat available) or 2) a Discord channel! If I make the group/discord thing I can throw up my graphics and link it back to my website, which is why I figured I would offer to make it. You guys will have free reign of the place as long as every stays civil, but as I’ve always said I have the best Champions, so I don’t believe that will be a problem.)
So if you have a preference, Champions, or another idea for a way for you to communicate more easily, leave it in the comments down below! 🙂
Discord please!
I know my vote is late, but Discord would be awesome!!
Same
Discord sounds great! I’m already part of other fandoms there!
Discord would be awesome! I don’t have a facebook so I haven’t really been able to participate in past events unfortunately :/
same same
Exactly!
DISCORD!!! (I’m not on FB either, lol, and I’d hate to miss the discussion!)
Definitely Discord! I don’t have Facebook.
Discord would be great!
I’d love to join a Discord channel.
Discord!
(I don’t have a Facebook lol)
I’d love the FB group option because it’s where I’m in a bunch of groups there already 🙂
Discord sounds good. I’m never on Facebook anymore.
I’d really like to do a Discord, please. I’m super excited to have someone to fangirl with!
Discord sounds like a great idea! I’ve done fandom things on discord before, and it’s always been really fun.
You could start a WhatsApp group. I don’t know if you Americans know what that is, but WhatsApp is a great chatting app that people all over the world can use for free on WiFi.
Totally agree. WhatsApp is great.
Discord sounds cool!
Can I just say I think this is a fantastic idead?!! This is by far one of my favorite fan groups to be in!
I just had to Google what a discord channel is as I am unfamiliar with that platform. I’ve been on some pretty great nerd/fan groups on FB. So that is the option that appeals to me.
A discord sounds fantastic! I’m on a ton of book servers on there and I’ve met a lot of awesome book nerds because of it!
I am up for the discord channel thing. Thanks for doing something about the whole chat thing.
Can’t wait for snow white and angel’s first book….
