A new month, a new war!
I’ll come back to make this more wordsy later.
HERE is the document.
The prompt is “Dream Sequence.” So, basically we write a character experiencing a dream.
To start us off:
1. Let’s fill the document with dream cliches, interesting dreams you’ve had, and ideas for how we want this to end up (funny, nightmare,…[Read more]

Secondly, HI HOW ARE YOU, FRIENDS? I have no great story or excuse for the fact that’ I’ve been gone for so long. Just the usual: school, wor…[Read more]

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]

Thanks for all your feedback, guys! 😀 This is how it’s going to work:
I will set up two boards dedicated to writing. The first will be for writing tips, posts, articles, etc. so we can compile cool articles and promote each other.
The second will be dedicated to story inspiration. 😀 I think we will center it around character inspiration, scene…[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]

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]

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]

@millennium-m Cool! 😀 Yay, I’m glad you like them. 🙂
@pookiemonster Though I have used sections for SE boards, I’m not sure if I’d like to create a sectioned group board. It would make it harder for me to regulate, and I haven’t seen sections in many popular group boards. However, it’s a good thought so I will look into it. 🙂 And thanks for…[Read more]

*steps up onto podium…*
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]

Wow! Guys! We have almost 48k words for this month’s word war!
We need to be sure to stay on top of this and not procrastinate and think we have the whole month to get around to it! *is so very guilty of this herself*
If we could write (on average) 500 words per day, per person, from now until the end of the month, that would be 190k more words.…[Read more]
