Friends Only Please~

Please comment if you would like to be added so I know who you are; maybe let me know how you found me, and what we might have in common, and I'll probably add you! Just please don't just randomly friend me with no explanation, that actually kinda creeps me out.

I've enjoyed it even just as a personal thing, but I definitely do hope that someday it's a more active platform! Someday I will stop being nostalgic for the old days of LJ, but today is not that day.

I'll be honest that I've fallen behind on most of the writing comms in the last couple months, though I'll hopefully get my enthusiasm back after the hectic summer nonsense winds down at work.
Here are the writing communities that I know of that are fairly active:

The most active is probably ushobwri (You Should Be Writing), which is a writing support community. There are twice-weekly posts to chat on and check in with each other on.

justcreate is open to all kinds of creative stuff, and does weekly check-ins. It's very low-pressure, but is a nice place to share about how stuff is going, and sharing your stuff is highly encouraged.

whatif_au is a multi-fandom writing community that focuses on a different AU type/prompt for each month. Stuff can be shared at any point, so the monthly themes are very soft deadlines, but it can be fun to have the prompts and see what people share. It's fairly small, so there's not always a ton posted in fandoms I'm a part of, but... it's AUs, so sometimes it doesn't matter, lol.

writethisfanfic hasn't been updated since last month, but I'm hoping it isn't dead. :( It was another weekly check-in, with a month-by-month "challenge", where you could ask for different types of motivation or declare different goals for the month. Looks like no one signed up to be the "host" for weeks in August, so I hope that it doesn't wind up dying out.

There's also inkingitout, which is an annual challenge community, so signups are closed for this year, but it's kept up with weekly check-in posts that can be really helpful.
