I have an online writing community I met through Story-a-Day-May. (We're called Superstars because HECK YEAH!) Anyway, we meet up online for writing sprints and it works wonders. Definitely recommend writing with others. I used to do the same in person for NaNoWriMo (and hope to again eventually). Folks should give it a try! I'm looking at you, introverts!

Oh, that's so great you already have a writing group—and that it's delivering on a superstar level! This really is at the heart of what NaNoWriMo does, so I need to toast NaNoWriMo at every turn.

NaNoWriMo is one of my favorite writing things ever! It's because of NaNo I found my community at StoryaDay and I had my first novel published. It's meant the world to me, and I toast it at every turn.

What a great idea! One good result of Covid seems to be that people learned new ways to find and sustain a writing community.

You're right, Barbara. So many people seem to write together online these days, in a way they wouldn't have pre-Covid.
