Yeah!!!

@rolena-hatfield

If it makes you feel any better Daeus himself forgot about it and had to do an impromptu word war start on Wednesday.

@brandon-miller

Thanks.

@brie-donning, HAzahhh!!!! You got this. 444 words a day is nothing to sneeze at.

@missfaeriekaiti, Yay! You’re ahead of me on schedule (thankfully I’m not behind, but in no way am I ahead [mostly]):D Well done!

@cassidy Cool! We look forward to having your count in our midst.

@pookiemonster, Do what you can! We are so glad to have even the…[Read more]

Alrighty… signing out for the night. My count today ended at 1678, which is nice… I think I know what I’m gonna write next so hopefully tomorrow will be easier. This leaves me with a grand total of 3188 words this war!

I hope you get around to writing a ton! May the crazy ink of your mind never run dry.

Goodnight.

@brandon-miller @rolena-hat…[Read more]

@cassidy

Yes!

Any fresh poetry or prose… either first draft or editing (with editing sometimes we get a higher word-count so you can count the added words).

And just post your word-count here as a comment. But you don’t need to sign up. You’re in as soon as you start writing…

And so long as the writing is fresh, you can be inspired by…[Read more]

It even encourages me…

@brandon-miller @scribbles

Oh! What about Bri? Or maybe Bree… The shortened sounds of Brianna.

@brandon-miller

Okay… *wipes away a tears* Just remember how encouraging it is for the guild to see their guildmaster’s count inch up every night… sometimes by unit multipliers. I pray your character/outlining work goes well.

@cassidy

Cassidy! Welcome! Here’s how this works *copy pastes the guild master’s first comment*:

“Here’s what counts:
First draft poetry/prose (fiction)
Editing wordcount (calculate: wc of final draft – wc of first draft)

The war ends NEXT TUESDAY NIGHT.

This is a great chance to get your brain in the writing rhythm, but don’t burn yours…[Read more]

@missfaeriekaiti
Indeed! Yahoo!

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]

@missfaeriekaiti

Hey! It is not cowardly to not accept. “That is a lie!” (has no idea why he just quoted Grima Wormtongue)…

But it makes me most happy that you decided to accept!

@missfaeriekaiti

Thanks! Would you care to join me in this goal? I know you said you don’t want to pressure yourself with NaNo… but I’m not quite sure if you consider this that… and honestly 10000 words in a week is not super hard… If you get 1500 every day for seven days that’s 10500 words. Once you set your mind to it… maybe you’ll find it easy.

@brandon-miller

YEESSS!!! It show’s our wins! Let’s show ’em that Rillumen ain’t only good for word count, and level out the prose prompt side. Rillumen! Illumenate The World!

@brie-donning @missfaeriekaiti @brandon-miller @scribbles

Woohoo!!!! We really are getting a good start. My goal for this war is 10000 words. This is not as much as last time… but I hope it’s enough.

Keep up the great work everyone!

@scribbles

Yeah! You go!!!

@brandon-miller

Champion Defender Wordsmith putting in his word count: Acquired today, beginning the race for the week… 1510 words!

Oh! And btw… I heard some peeps from New Wessex talking smack about winning this one… we gonna let that happen? Let’s get on our feet and show ’em the golden river of Rillumen! It flows strong… it flows…[Read more]

@scribbles

YEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

*whispers…* we got the best badge!

@skye

Hey there! Thanks! Those thoughts were helpful… in the extreme (at least to me). I appreciate your input.
