In preparation for this year's "NaNoWriMo Write-A-Thon"  (which will open for sign-ups in a little over a week!), I'm hoping those of you who are familiar with the activity can help me out by answering a quick 10-question survey about what you'd like to see for the Write-A-Thon going forward. It would really help me figure out what's working well and what I can improve.

| After more than 12 years and a lot of "should I or shouldn't I?" over the years, I decided to officially change my username tonight. Jayne  changed hers earlier this evening and dared me to follow suit and you know what a bad influence she can be...  You'll all be able to find me a little easier now since my new username is... jeff If you have my old username SoCalScribe linked anywhere, please make sure you update it to jeff. While it should be a pretty seamless transaction in a lot of ways, the one place where it's not is in the WritingML "user" links. "User" links to my old username will break and need to be updated to reconnect to my account. I'll be poking around the site looking for places it needs to be updated as well, but if you know of any links to my old username that you have the opportunity to fix, that would be a huge help. While there are a few reasons for the change, the big one was that the username that matches my handle was available so I jumped all over it. "SoCalScribe" was a relic from my time on the site before I felt comfortable using my real name, but I changed my handle to "Jeff" and rebranded years ago. So this change just makes it so my handle and my username match. Not to mention it's a whole lot easier to type out! |
