Description

Word Whimsy is an online writer’s resource intended to inspire creativity and help writers of all experience levels overcome obstacles in their creative process. Designed to be an online ‘muse’ of sorts, Word Whimsy challenges you to step out of your comfort zone and look at things from a new perspective. And, as the name suggests, Word Whimsy is about enjoying the act of writing, getting it out on paper (which is the most important thing) and writing without stifling your creativity by taking it all too seriously!

Members of NaNoWriMo and Script Frenzy are more than welcome to join in on the discussions here! Though Word Whimsy is not endorsed by either group, we do support both and encourage participants to use the challenges here and on the Word Whimsy site to encourage their writing and fuel their muses.

All original contributions are considered to copyright protected, all rights belonging to their authors. We welcome open-minds and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism here. Keep in mind that one harsh word can kill a writer's muse; be gentle with each other and encouraging. Judgmental, racist, or rude behavior will not be tolerated and anyone violating this will be removed from the group. Please keep subject headings pertinent to the topic and have fun!

Though this group is open to anyone globally, we are currently working on a once a month get-together in the local Ocala, Florida area for those interested in doing "write-ins". More later...

Word Whimsy site and forums to be unveiled soon!
