Just got the email that the July camp is open. Anyone else planning to do it?

I'll do something, not sure what, probably short stories. Will have to account for the fact that the TNEO workshop occupies the last several days of July, so I doubt I'll get that many words written then.

I guess I''ll do something? Sure. I'll do something. The first five months of this year have been pretty slack, so why not? Probably short stories.

I'm stuck between 2 stories now. I have my next sci-fi romance to write, and a sequel to my fantasy romance. Will see which I do, or if I switch between the two!

Has anyone looked into the cabin situation? Things have changed a bit. Looks like the old friend request system is no longer the same. Instead, if you want to get specific people in your cabin, you request a "private cabin". Once you're all cuddled up with friends, then you can open it to new people / random add-ins if you want.
SHOULD WE DO THIS? I'm thinking let's. Never mind I already started one for the people who've declared themselves here. It's pretty cool - you all just APPEARED LIKE MAGIC when I typed in your screen names.
Uh, I guess if you'd rather snub me callously decline, no big? No idea what it'll look like on your end, but I'm assuming that you'll get some kind of camp mail to allow you to officially join the cabin. As it stands you're currently listed as "Invited."
ETA: If you want in on this CABIN OF WONDERS, then post here that you've signed up for Camp and I'll send you an invite. I think that's how it works, anyway!

Yeah, it's a pretty cool system, ain't it? I was beta-testing it a little from Kansas. I think I'll pass on your invite, though I took a picture of it for posterity! I'm already in a pretty cool little cabin with some fun writers who've been chatting a lot so far. And I'll be spending a lot of time over here in July with you guys too.

I think I'm going to have to decline too. I've already had someone from my automatically assigned cabin contact me on twitter. If my cabin ends up as quiet as other years though, I'll be back!

I callously delcined | Kidding! I accepted, thank you for the invite! Even if I can't make a specific write in or something due to transpo, I can at least have cabins to poke at me to get writing XD

No worries, guys! I'll plan to open the cabin to anyone and everyone, then. Not sure what will happen to it...we'll see!

Looks like existing invites are deleted, but Nixy and I needed some extra peeps in our cabin, so there it is.

Not sure the camp system has totally ironed itself out yet - no new campers showed up to our cabin after I made it public So anyway, how's it going for everyone? I'm at 4850 words. A bit below par, but I'm proud to say that I've written every day so far.

I've managed a good 1500 words just in one hour today, and hopefully can hit the word count I SHOULD be at for this time of the month. Also noticed our lack of campers... sorry I was slack on replying, I've been all over the GTA and without a lot of time to be online the last few weeks. Plus, mom-stuff.

I'm at 14,456 words. I should have accepted your invite Elizabeth, because my cabin is so quiet. There are a couple of people talking, but like, they might make one comment a day. And there are only 2 or 3 of them. I think at least half the comments in there are mine.
I'm determined to make my goal every day, even if I'm ahead. I really want to get this novel as closed to finished as possible by the end of the month.
Struggling today though. Maybe because things are busy and loud and noisy here, and I can't concentrate!

Wow, good for you, Rinelle! I'm at 5996. Busy day today but I'm hoping to get a bit of writing in, lots more tomorrow.
