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]

So I’m interested to hear how everything is going with you peeps! I didn’t get as many words as I had planned, but I’m happy with what I got.
So today… I wrote a grand total of: 1740 words!
Rachel… how ’bout you? And what about anyone else who accepted my challenge? Did you guys get to push any extra words…[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]

I know it’s a daunting task… but here’s an idea. Don’t even set a word goal… maybe you could just have a pad of paper open, and in free time just write for a little while. Always keep that by you, so it’s there. Keep heart… Rillumen is with you.

*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]

Rachel Rogers replied to the topic November Word War in the forum Announcements 7 years, 7 months ago
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]

Hey guys (@Coralie) tomorrow is the last day of the word war!
We’re gonna be short on words if we don’t all kick it up a notch. We want to notch our third victory, so here’s a call to arms!
I actually got a few words written today (648, to be exact) and also I’ve written pages and pages and pages of character outlines, but those don’t count.…[Read more]

Rillumen! A quick note… I think we have a strong start… but let me remind you that all the guilds can easily look at our prior wins (on the guild page) and set a goal to beat. We have shown to the world what last time’s win was, so they now have that to use.
But remember… we get better too. We can show them what happens when a Lumenite…[Read more]

Hey there ya’ll! So I have a thought…
Myself and one other have set a goal to get 10,000 words for this war… and after thinking about it, I’d like to invite you all to join us in that. I’m not saying you have to, I don’t know what your life is like… but the invitation is out there.
I personally have found that setting a goal, even if a…[Read more]
