Writrs: A Tumblr Community

Are you one of those crazy people who attempts National Novel Writing Month each year? Or are you thinking about trying it for the first time this year? Well, this is the place for you!

In November we post helpful tips and suggestions, as well as provide a place for you to get support and encouragement from other WriMos on Tumblr. We want to help make sure that your writing month goes as smoothly as possible!

The rest of the year we will do our best to inspire you with quotes and activities to keep you writing! We will also be featuring Camp NaNo in the summer and another month-long challege called ScriptFrenzy in the spring. As well as teaching you some prep tips in the fall for the next NaNoWriMo.

“ Because I only talk a good game, I only dream in my head, but do you know what I want in reality? That you all go to hell, that’s what! I want peace. I’d sell the whole world for a kopeck this minute, just not to be bothered. Shall the world go to hell, or shall I not have my tea? I say let the world go to hell, but I should always have my tea.
— Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Notes from Underground (via morphinith)

“ Even as a child she had lived her own small life within herself. At a very early period she had apprehended instinctively the dual life- that outward existence which conforms, the inward life which questions.

“ A small occasion demands a little emotion, just as a large emotion demands a great one. I would like my emotions to be appropriate. This may be measuring them like potatoes, but it is better than slopping them about like water from a pail.
— Stephen Fry - Moab is my washpot (via partyinghardintheshire)

“ The men up there don’t like a lot of blabber
They think a girl who gossips is a bore!
Yet on land it’s much prefered for ladies not to say a word
And after all dear, what is idle babble for?
Come on, they’re not all that impressed with conversation
True gentlemen avoid it when they can
But they dote and swoon and fawn
On a lady who’s withdrawn
It’s she who holds her tongue who get’s a man
—

Ursula, The Little Mermaid. 

See, it’s stiff like this that I grew up that has made it impossible for me to talk about my feeling’s now. LOL! I can blame Ursula.
