Happy Valentine’s Day! Have A Fandom Chocolate Giveaway!

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, the Pinto bar is inviting all Pinto beans to participate in a fandom chocolate giveaway.

YES! You create your very own, personal, crazy, amazing, fannish chocolate recipe, and I will send you that exact chocolate – if you’re one of the four lucky winners.

Here’s how it works:

  • Go to the “Mi-Xing bar” of the Zotter online shop where you can customise your own personal chocolate. (By the way, Zotter is not only one of the best chocolate makers of the world, their chocolates are also fair trade and organic!)
  • Compose a Pinto fandom chocolate! Zotter allows you to choose one (or more) kinds of chocolate, up to one filling, and various toppings. Write down “your” recipe and come up with a suitable fandom name for your composition.
  • Participate in the Pinto bar fandom chocolate giveaway! The deadline is Pi(e) Day (that is March 14, 2016).

To win your personal fandom chocolate, you have to do only two things:

  1. Make a Tumblr post that contains the name and the recipe of your Pinto fandom Zotter chocolate tagged with “#pinto bar chocolate”.
  2. Send an e-mail with your composition and your Tumblr name to: pintobar AT party DOT ms

Deadline: You have until Pi(e) Day (that is March 14, 2016) to participate in the Pinto bar fandom chocolate giveaway.

When Pi(e) Day has rolled around, I will pick four winners from all participants. As a prize they will get “their” fandom chocolate, of course!

Have fun & happy Valentine’s Day!

Cheers,
Satis & the Pinto bar beans

Sprint-a-Palooza at the Big Bang Brunch

Hey kids, we’ve got just over a week to get our drafts together for art claims. What better way than to do some writing sprints!?

What’s a sprint? For the uninitiated, it’s when a bunch of us join up in the bar and write as much as we can as fast as we can during a set time limit. Then we post our totals and share in the back-slapping and congratulations (and maybe even a snippet or two). The point is word count – you can always go back and edit later.

What’s Sprint-a-Palooza? IDK, I thought it’d be cool to post a listing of folks’ totals as the afternoon goes on and share with the fandom? It might also help motivate by a show of progress. 

When: Today at  17:00 UTC (convert your time zone here)

Where: The Pinto Bar

So, signal boost, writers, and I’ll see you in the bar later today!

I will be there for at least a bit.  And I think the “Palooza” idea is grand… maybe not just of today’s sprints, but PBB totals to date, just to show how much writing this thing has generated…so much more pinto for Beans everywhere look forward to…
