For those at Botcon (and those who aren’t)
On Friday, June 3, a special TF_Speedwriting Event will take place at 4pm Pacific Time at a location to be announced.
Here is how it will work:
For those who are attending Botcon and would like to participate, we will meet at a location to be announced (on Thursday) for live Speedwriting (or speed-creativity of some form).
naboru_narluin or
ultharkitty will reveal the prompt or prompts at 4pm Pacific (GMT-7). Femme will bring along some paper and pens for those who don’t have laptops.
You can write on a prompt solo (while sharing ideas with others if you wish), write it collaboratively, or engage in some other form of creative endeavor in response to the prompt (video, artwork, song, interpretive dance…you get the picture). The output can be posted anytime before Friday, June 10 to be included in the stats.
Participants will be eligible for a special Botcon Speedwriting Icon (thanks naboru!)
The normal Speedwriting limits apply. You have 120 minutes (excludes giggling time).
For those not at Botcon, (or who wish to participate without the meet-up) you can write and post on the same prompts anytime before Friday, June 10.
If you are going to be at Botcon, and wish to know the location Live Speedwriting, please PM your contact info to
femme4jack . Or, as an alternative, the location will also be posted here and on the
botcon2011 comm when we have figured out where it will be.
Any questions? Please leave a comment here. Hopefully this will be tons of fun, with lots of laughter.
Also, if you are familiar with the Pasadena Convention Center vicinity and know a location nearby with wireless where we can hang out, laugh, and be creative together, can you please let me know? Thanks. And thanks so much to
naboru_narluin for agreeing to host this and to
lady_katana4544 for coming up with such a fine idea with me in chat :).
