Also because I finally have some spoons maybe let us hope, I have been wanting to host an online unfinished object (UFO) and work in progress (WIP) party for awhile now. Because I am an extrovert who is mostly stuck in my house and what else is the internet for.

Here is another poll gauging interest and also trying to figure out accessibility, time zones, and tech issues.

I am hoping that if it goes well, it can happen more than once (spoons willing) because I'm pretty sure there's no way to host a thing that cooperates with everyone's schedule and suchlike. (See: Geek Social Fallacy # 5)
