Three announcements concerning New Wessex.

1. I know sometimes community building, brainstorming, etc can be difficult on a forum. So I’m going to run an experiment. I’m going to create a group chat. You guys vote. It could be Facebook, it could be Hangouts. We’ll see how it goes. 😛

I like the idea of having accountability like this! 🙂

@italian-stallion
Perhaps start with a word count slightly above what you know you can for sure hit, and see how it goes. Like, for example. Say you know you can hit 1,000 words in a single week. I’d set the goal for maybe 1,500. To push yourself slightly above what you’re…[Read more]
