Come and join us in the #antidiogenes chatroom for a writing (and whining, and wine-ing) weekend!
The rules are below.
1. Write as much as you can over the weekend.
2. Just write anything at all. A limerick. A quitting/job acceptance letter. A shaming sign to hang on your naughty pets. An entire novel. Whatevs.
That’s basically it. If you’re new around these parts, you probably want to read these notes on what counts and a further explanation of how it gets counted.
As usual, the weekend is scheduled to begin on Friday, March 20th at 6pm Pacific (see what time that is in your timezone) and end Sunday, March 22nd, at 6pm Pacific. Any words written at any point during these 48 hours can be counted toward your weekend total, and you can submit that total at any point using this handy form.
If you want to play along, here is what you can expect:
1. The chat! We have two main rooms—#antidiogenes for general chat, and #antidiogenes-warroom for quiet writing and word wars; most people have been staying logged into both and swapping tabs as needed for their own personal purposes.
The main Antidiogenes chat room (#antidiogenes)is a writing/creating group, not a more general discussion group, so mods reserve the right to nudge people gently back onto writerly/creatorish topics if chat goes too far down the garden path. Please be kind in flagging/tagging your spoilers before mentioning them. Not everyone is caught up on everything. We started as a Sherlock chatroom but we are much more ecumenical now - be good to each other, and talk about spoilery things in separate/private rooms.2. You don’t need self-invite, or any other kind of invite to access the chat any more.
3. There will be mod(s) in the main chat room most of the time, but we don’t have a formal rota (which means we can get more sleep). If you have a query and there’s no mod around, contact us via the tumblr ask box and someone will get back to you very soon.
4. We will be running word wars (20 or 30 minute intense writing blasts!!) over in #antidiogenes-warroom every now and again. While there’s no official schedule for these, they usually run once an hour whenever there are enough people in the room who want one. Mods tend to run these when there are mods around, but anyone can do it.
5. We’re also queuing up four-hourly reminder posts on antidiogenes on Tumblr, to ask how it’s going. Feel free to reblog or reply to let us know, and to commiserate with your fellow sufferers.
This weekend, wrangling you all along with me will be Persiflager, Pangolin Armadillo, consultingsmartass, tiltedsyllogism and possibly a few other mods if they’re awake and have enough coffee.
Look forward to seeing you all there!

'Sex' doesn't sell. Erosion of female self esteem does. The feeling of superiority over women does. Turning women into 'things' to be studied, scrutinized & judged and then calling it 'sex' does.

Inkeeper: Sorry we couldn't do a double room for you boys.
John: Oh, we're not--
Inkeeper: *beams and stares straight into john's soul, passing right by his compulsory heterosexuality to see the truth: that he and sherlock are men who have been in love in every incarnation for the past 130 years and were literally made for each other*
