Suwrimo (or to some Suwrimos) is the Summer Writing Months.
If you've ever heard of Nanowrimo (National Novel Writing Month) it's the same basic idea. However, Nano is in November, when a lot of people are busy; if in school, this tends to be when finals are, and any good student is concentrating more on studying and schoolwork than trying to write 50,000 words. Even people not in school can be very busy with work, family, and social life at this time of the year, and some people simply can't juggle writing on top of everything else.
The idea had humble beginnings on Gaia Online, a social website, but the idea deserves a wider audience, hence the forums. Anyone can join if they have free time and want to give it a go.
