B2MeM 2013 Is Coming!

Yes, that time of year is almost here again: time for our annual Back to Middle-earth Month event! Once again, the Silmarillion Writers' Guild, Many Paths to Tread, and Arda Inspired will be teaming up to bring the Tolkien fandom a month of fun, creativity, and community.

We are currently in the planning phases for this year's challenge, and we need help and feedback from our community to help us decide the challenge we want to run this year. If you have an idea for an event, please do share it in a comment here! (If you want to see what kinds of events we've run in the past, we have links to them all on the SWG site here: http://www.silmarillionwritersguild.org/specialprojects.php.)

Even if you don't have a specific idea for an event, if there's a past event that you loved (or a past event that you'd rather not see something similar to this year), please comment and let us know.

We have only one requirement for B2MeM events: They should be open to the entire Tolkien fan-writing and -art communities. Ideally, this should also allow people to participate whether they have one or thirty-one days free to work on challenges.

We look forward to hearing everyone's ideas and getting this year's event ready to roll!

You'd mentioned the acrostic idea before

I did? Wow, so, one trick pony *and* forgetful, here! You're clearly doing better than I am!

I hear you about lack of time, and trying to balance grad school and job(s). Teaching takes a lot of work, likewise, keeping up with professors. I suppose at some point, you might want to bathe, eat, maybe indulge in that thing called Talking To People Not On Your Computer, too, which does take up writing and game time... I'll wait with bated breath for October, because that sounds like entirely too much fun, and I'm sure I'll sacrifice some sleep for something like that.

(I would just like to note, so we can measure some of the crazy already, that when I finished posting to Dreamflower, there were 63 comments. When I checked my e-mail immediately after and came back to write this one, there were 75. Huh boy.)
