Participation Survey

I've set up a survey for people who participated in NaSkeWriMo '09. If you've registered at the website you should have received an email, but if not you can click here to access the form.

I hope there will be useful nuggets of wisdom buried in the responses, which I intend to mine and process into Manufactured Wisdom Goods to be published on this blog.

See you there!

Home stretch!

Hey all!

Great work done by so many people. I'm impressed and inspired and hope you are too.

Don't be discouraged if you're behind...I know I am behind but not discouraged.

The end of the month celebration will be soon announced, in all its detailed glory. Whether you plan to read, submit or just watch please come on down! I can't wait to see you all.

What kind of sketch?

Do you have a particular kind of sketch you enjoy writing?

I'm hooked on commercial parodies. Easy but effective. Some folks like office scenes gone horribly wrong. Others like fantastical characters - two zombies walk into a bar. Relationship humor is a good go-to. Also, any sketch involving Abraham Lincoln.

While I pack and drink my fourth cup of coffee, use one of the above ideas to shake up your sketch writing. Feel free to add yours here or to the Facebook board.

Meet the Writers

By popular* demand, I've added a Writers page to the National Sketch Writing Month website. Now you can find the sketches of any writer, even if they no longer appear in the Recent Updates list on the home page.

Note that you must write at least one sketch to appear on the Writers page. After all, it's not the a roster for The League of Good Intentions**.

* One person's.

** Need inspiration? Go write a sketch with that title.

Follow NaSkeWriMo on Tumblr

I've set up a NaSkeWriMo tumblelog to republish news from this blog and also links to sketches as they are posted. In other words, nothing you can't find elsewhere, but follow it if you'd like to see September's sketch writing activity in your Tumblr Dashboard.

Ways to upload sketches

Perhaps Ben has more insight on this, but basically you can host your sketches in a number of places so you can create a link and upload to the main NaSkeWriMo page:

- your own website
- your own blog
- Google Docs.
