What Pern Month Is It
Article by: Bree
Are you wondering what month it is now? The following is a list of Earth Months and the Pern Months that are open at the same time. Each Pern Month lasts 2 Earth Months, with 1 month of time at the end to tie up loose plot ends.
We are currently in Turn 11 of the current Pass, which means Thread has been falling for ten full Turns now. In late 2023 & early 2024 we froze the calendar and wrote freely to 'catch up' the time the site had been quiet. The caused the change in dating. These will be revised once the calendar starts up again.

2025
We're trying out a new timeline starting January 2025, where one Pern month will OPEN at the beginning of every Real Life month. Previous months will NOT CLOSE the way they used to - instead, they will remain OPEN for posting for 6 months. So you will not need to note anything as "backdated" if it is within six REAL LIFE months of when the Pern Month opened.
