I was talking to one of my best friends ever, who I happened to meet on here (a thing I didn't think possible, considering my struggle with socializing). Shoutout to @crocs-needs-a-drink-and-death, btw. They agreed with me that this would be amazing if put into reality.
Okay, the idea: Notebookian Meet-n-Greet. Eh?
I know I've expressed many times to Crocs that I would love to meet with them in real life, but we just never have the ability to do so. I don't doubt that there are many other friendships such as ours on this site, so I just had the thought of us all going to an event where we all get to see the faces behind the characters.
Our nametags would have our @'s with our names beneath it. For example, mine would have Dances_with_Shadows with Circe beneath it. Most recent @ at the time of the event, by the way. I know a lotta you change it frequently. We are not required to introduce ourselves to each other with our real names. We can use our Notebook names or usernames if we wish.
Not only is it a chance to make/meet friends, but it's also full of opportunity as well. We can promote our works in progress, finished books, artwork, anything that we want to promote. We can get feedback from each other about those things, and also get inspiration from one another. Editors and publishers could come to scout out potential future authors, as Notebook is a place full of writers, so an event full of writers would be a prime place for them to look.
I dunno, just an idea I wanted to throw out there. How would you guys feel about this? What other things could this event have?
