I’ve seen people write a full 1,000 words in 15 minutes. It’s CRAAAAAZY. I can generally write that much in half an hour (mayyybe 20 minutes… Or at least I could a year ago; this year I’m about twice as slow from way-too-frequent breaks, lol.), but not 15 minutes. No way. XD

@naiya-dyani Well, I’m not letting myself edit yet. I may leave a note or fix a minor thing I notice. But mostly I just try to make myself move on. The first draft of anything is not going to be very pretty. Kinda like what @r-m-archer said.

@of_rainy_days *grins thinking about past word wars and the numbers she’s seen* Not anyone… I’ve seen…[Read more]

@of_rainy_days Pfffffft. First of all, I can name at least two people who can consistently out-write me. Second of all… this isn’t actually that fast… This is probably mid-range WW speed, in general. (Which is not at all meant to make the slower writers feel bad! Slow progress is still great progress, and y’all are awesome. ^-^)

@of_rainy_days They seriously are! And way more fun than actual writing lol

How do you guys get so many words down without your brain spontaneously combusting??? Because mine most certainly was from start to finish!

Assuming I remembered my previous cut-off point correctly, I got 464 this time around.

Go!

@of_rainy_days Have you seen the character aesthetics people have been making here? They’re awesome! The blend of lovely and meaningful words and pics is irresistible 😀

@of_rainy_days Oh, thanks! Like most of my stories, it just popped into my head and I thought it was cool 😀 .

Also, I like your username! I’m kinda into all things lyrical 😛

@of_rainy_days Welcome on board! 😀 I’m fairly new here myself, but I’ve already found it’s a great place to hang out and get/give input with other writers! Everyone’s super helpful and encouraging. I’m sure you’ll love it!

Darn, I missed a word war. . . well, I’m up for the next one if anyone else is! 😀

@r-m-archer I got 227. Kinda slow, but I had to figure out some things in this scene.

@of_rainy_days Maybe you can join the next one?

@jenwriter17 Okay, good night!

481. And I got into a scene that I’m really excited for and think I’m actually doing a decent job of, so I’m really pleased with that! 🙂

Y’all?

@jenwriter17 @catwing @of_rainy_days

@jenwriter17 Sounds good! Starting at the :20?

Hello, @of_rainy_days! Nice to meet you! 😀

@naiya-dyani @r-m-archer @catwing Awesome! Wanna start, say, a 15 minute war?

@r-m-archer Sure. I need to catch up a bit.

@of_rainy_days Hello Allie! I’m Catwing the catwing! *throws feathers for your arrival* Nice to meet you. 😀

Also, my best friend recently joined the forums (as in, ten minutes ago, lol) and she’s not a fan of introducing herself, so here’s me introducing her: @of_rainy_days (Allie, most places online) is a hobbyist writer of speculative fiction featuring characters with heart-related conditions, which combines her passion for books with her passion for…[Read more]
