Happy birthday to you, WackyWriters’!

I can’t believe it’s been 5 years!!! This was such a lifeline in the depths of pandemic depression, and even as I’ve drifted away over the years, I always come back to my homebase here This feels like such a safe space for my brain, in a world that’s so rapidly changing

[NatureLover40]

Thank goodness I came back before today’s over-

I remember the ARG I was part of, had so much fun with that!

Plus roleplaying, and those fun questions about our stories.

Can’t forget about Wisp’s thread, either.

@alcoholandcaffeine

Same! It feels like it hasn’t been that long.

Oh heck yeah, A&C is right: this place was a total lifeline during the pandemic! I remember feeling so cut off from people in real life, but here were all my online buddies, same as usual, and so comforting when real life was a mess. It’s still my first stop when I go online every day, and I love sharing stuff with you guys that I find on LitHub and other sites. And YouTube videos! We must keep YT in business with how much we share their videos. ☜(ˆ▿ˆc)

that was so much chaos behind the scenes but I’m super glad it all worked out and you enjoyed it!

even if I don’t manage to join conversations as often, I love coming back to my personal thread and posting random updates and re-reading everything I wrote there when I’m feeling down. so much has happened, even though I might not always realise it…

chaos is an understatement!

[alcoholandcaffeine]

[DollyTH]

[alcoholandcaffeine]

[alcoholandcaffeine]

we need to get back into banterrrrrrrrrrrrr

[NatilladeCoco]

Time sure flies by I’m glad to have been part of Wacky for this long!

I loved being part of one of the ARGs back in the day and how much fun it was

Its always fun coming back to answer story-related questions, share my writing progress, and update my personal thread with whatever goes on in my life, its wild looking back at how much has happened over time

[Churro]

I’m still here.

I love all you guys and you’ve made it so much fun over the past five years! I’ve made some good friends here, and we all have good discussion.

[DollyTH]

@Churro

Somehow

I love the honesty

[NotARussianBot]

I remember when I met someone who stated that all writing is ultimately pointless. On a writing forum. Through text.

The jokes write themselves.

[DollyTH]

the irony XD

[alcoholandcaffeine]

@DollyTH

I love the honesty

Tbf “somehow” is right, though, I don’t think any of us believed we would make it 2 years, let alone 5!

[DollyTH]

Day by day baby!!! Shows how perseverance works!
