Huzzah!!!
Rillumen! I return after a day of silence… and I return with nothing in hand. No word count. Tired. Ready to relax. But part of me really wants to get in at least a small word-count. So first off I’m kinda looking for some encouragement (imagine that… with wordsmith just asked for encouragement😂)… Secondly… I’d…[Read more]

Rillumen… It may be Tuesday, but you’re not off the hook! We still have a war to fight, and we need to fight it hard. Not including today, we only have three days left, and whether we likes it or not the war is gonna end. *turns and looks each one of you in the eye*
We just passed the 200000 word marker… but let’s look at a few statistics.…[Read more]

@graceabounds2129… I have not gotten any writing done today. Maybe later tonight.
@nuetrobolt… Hey there! So here’s what I’m gonna say. You don’t have to feel inspired. Sit down at the computer… If you have to stand up to do that, then go ahead. But sit down at the computer and open a doc. Whatever doc you’re writing on. Then pull up some…[Read more]

Heyo! Yep… it’s me. Mostly though you shouldn’t have to worry much about calling me by my name. ‘Round here it just seems like we tag them, and tend not to use their real name, except in certain circumstances.

@corkybookworm… Hahaha! Thanks… I just really enjoy motivational speeches whether in books, movies, or real life… and I’m highly extroverted… and a tad bit competitive. (and congrats on your count!)
@scribbles… WOOHOO! That’s great. Every word… COUNTS!
@brie-donning… I’m not saying you have to be able to do that, or should. But…[Read more]

And to all Rillumen! We have six days left to push out an unseen word-count! If each one of us gets five hundred words out, every day of the week… that’s gonna be 60000 words by the end of the week. Think of that… that’s the equivalent of a short novel. If we can do that in a week…
And on top of that… five hundred words can take as few as…[Read more]

Wordsmith replied to the topic November Word War in the forum Announcements 7 years, 11 months ago
Okay Rillumen… today is a day that I’d like to fill with writing… and I’d love for you to join me. Thus I propose a word war. One that ends today at 9:30 p.m. Central, starting at 11:15 a.m. Central (Today November 23rd). I’m doing a few smaller word-wars hopefully.
Let’s do this! Whether you answer or not, the war starts at 11:15 p.m.…[Read more]

So! I know I’ve spoken with each of you individually about doing small word-wars here and there… so I though: Why not create a topic just for word-wars and sprints. Others are invited to join us, but it might be nice to start out small figure out what we’re doing, so I won’t spread the word, I’ll just let people…[Read more]

Okay peeps! I finally picked up an extra two hundred words from my recent typical 550ish, putting me at 742 words tonight. This totals me out for the month at: 5643 words!
Okay… looking at the spreadsheet, I’m gaining on Quinn (‘m lady) and Miss Brie Donning. Would either of you care to put an end to that? I’m certainly ready to pick up the…[Read more]

Okay Rillumen… we are falling behind… and honestly it may not be your fault, it’s probably not… but I wonder what we can do to pick stuff back up. What’s a war without pain a toil. This isn’t supposed to be easy. But we can do it. Even in sharpening each other as iron, something is shaved away. It’s not a pleasant…[Read more]

Unfortunately no. I needed to get the outline finished before I could start and I didn’t quite get it done. So then I decided I’d finish the outline on the first day or two, and then start writing… and I didn’t do that either. Like, I worked on the outline, but it’s far from done. Epic sci-fi outlines are hard.
So yea…[Read more]
