Guys, I need to talk to you guys about BZPWriMo's status. Hahli Husky recently PM'd me about BZPWriMo, and how it would be best if it were moved from July, for the sake of both this and the official Summer Olympics slated for the same time slot. It wouldn't be so great if entrants from this contest were unable to participate in the official ones because of time, or that entrants from the other had no way to participate in this one. I completely agree. With both going on at the same time, neither contest can really do as well as they would've. However, there's no real reason to be disappointed. If you were looking forward to some serious writing, don't forget about the Summer Olympics. Multiple events should keep you happy for July and August, and Velox and I will reschedule the WriMo to another month, soon. Thanks everyone for understanding. -K

The Unofficial BZPower Writing Month Recently, Velox and I have been brainstorming ideas for a BZPWriMo, based off of the National Novel Writing Month (or, shortened, NaNoWriMo). For those unfamiliar with NaNoWriMo, the purpose is to write a 50,000 word novel (roughly 175 pages), during November. It's for anyone who's ever wanted to write a novel, but too scared away by the time and effort involved. However, BZPWriMo will be a bit different, and will be set to start on the first of July. The goal is to write 20,000 words by the end of the month. At the end of the month, anyone who finishes their entry, with over 20,000 words, will be judged. Before this however, they will be allowed to edit their work. When the judges have selected the finalists, I will set up a poll, where everyone can vote for the best entry. One other thing, there will be prizes. Other than the prize of creating a whole new epic/anthology/other type of story. In the meantime though, we'd like your input, and we'd like anyone interested to give their feedback on a few things: Are you interested in participating? Are you interested in judging? Should the BZPWriMo be BIONICLE-only stories, or would you like COT stories to be included? Is 20,000 words a good aim?That's all for now. The official entry will be posted at a later date. -K
