Good Idea?

[krossero]

So all this talk of pokey sticks and procrastinating gave me a bit of an idea, but this is me, so I need to know if it's workable/good/already out there. 

I thought that there should be some sort of pokey-stick community (or something) where everybody who signs up gets the name of someone to poke encourage about their writing, and in turn, their name is given to someone else.  This could probably be done partially anonymously, as long as you knew who you supposed to poke.

It could be a writer's support group kinda thingy, on a more individual basis, and maybe every month or so the names could rotate? 
This could be for any fandom, or just TS, or whatever.

So what do you guys think?  Anyone want to expand on the idea, or make it work, or am I just stupid, and it's already happening?

*smooches to all*

AND HOLY CRAP IT IS WINDY OUTSIDE O_O

I think ficfinishing is close to what you're looking for...

Doesn't have The Sentinel or Magnificent 7, which are the two fandms that Marnie and I are battling bunnies from these days. But thanks for the link!

*bounces*

Someone should be innovative and pioneering (*so* not me) and do something about this....

I also think it'd be a great way to meet and befriend authors!

Oh, I'll do something alright. Yep yep yeppity yep!

Woohoo! *high fives*

I voted, yesiree I did, and hopefully many others will as well!

I do believe that our fandom could greatly use many pokey sticks pointed in our direction!

Y'know, I kinda figured out from hanging around here that The Sentinel and Mag7 were the fandoms of choice. I mentioned ficfinishing because you can vote your fandom in fairly easily...
