Hi friends!
Our word war champions have emerged. In a stunning victory, word war group #3 takes the lead with 14,577 words, group 2 following with 7,358, and group 1 strangely no-show.
The individual with the highest wordcount was @joelle-stone with 6,841 words!
Great job everyone who participated.

Congratulations, @joelle-stone!

Thx Dakota!! 😀 I’ve gotta say that word wars make it much easier to be motivated, heh heh. 🙂 How many did you get?

@joelle-stone 6,511. Yep, they’re motivating. 😉
-
6511?!? Wow, good job!!! Which team are you on, if I may ask?
-
-
@joelle-stone Thanks! And it’s Word War Group 2.

Sad! We’re not on the same team. Oh, well, at least we can still compete!! 😀

@joelle-stone Yep! And the next one isn’t too far off. 😉

Hi, Laurel. 🙂 Your story sounds super interesting! I’m especially intrigued by the psychological part. I love mysteries. Incidentally, I’m working on a mystery novel right now, where the protagonist is trying to solve his parents murder and take down the crime boss who killed them (and a lot of other people).

I forwarded the thingy, so I hope you got it.
Great! I did it in July, but I didn’t have my novel planned at all, and I’m not a pantser, so it was challenging. (I’m a “plantser”, leaning on the “planner” side.) I was just so excited for it! But it was very helpful.
Will do!

Hey Laurel! Nice to meet you!
I struggle with that BIG TIME. I think the furthest I’ve ever gotten to finishing something is 17 very long chapters. And even then I didn’t finish.

Hi @law0413, nice to meet you and thanks for sharing! Could we have some more details on your story/series? Genre, what it’s about, etc.
In my opinion, what you need is to find someone (or several someones) whom you trust to read your work and keep you accountable. People who will push you to keep churning out new chapters and not get caught up…[Read more]

Well, I struggle with this too. A lot. I’ve been working on my current WIP for a whole year and I have… seven chapters written. :I
Pure motivation wise, I usually like re-reading through old, unrelated works. Random poems, snippets from two years ago at that one McDonald’s in Kentucky, character descriptions I’d forgotten. Often times…[Read more]

Hey SE people!
We’ve launched a cool new feature on the forum called groups.
You can find them in the nav bar like so:
Groups are hubs for writers to gather around something they share in common. They include a Facebook-like feed and most of them also include their own forums.
So far there are three types of groups:
