Big Bang Challenge: 1k a day to 10k!
It's May 15th, which means you have just over two weeks to get your rough-draft in. And if you're like me, you probably could use a good kick in the pants to get there.
With this in mind, I am now opening up the 1k a day challenge! This is a NaNoWriMo style writing sprint to the goal. So with that in mind, here are the rules:
1) Write a minimum of 1000 words for your rough draft/detailed outline. Do not stop. Do not go back and edit.
2) Post how wonderful you are and/or rant about your stressed-induced hysterical crying episodes on this thread.
3) The challenge runs from May 15th-May 25th. You get from May 25th-30th to edit your monster brand new rough draft/outline.
4) Participation in the challenge is completely voluntary, and just for fun. You are bound by the honor system from here on out to report your numbers accurately.
5) Winners (Anyone who uses this challenge to help them finish and submit their rough draft/outline in time) are mentioned in the end of the month check-in post, home made virtual chocolate chip cookies, and an artist to illustrate their final draft.
Finally, Beckyh112 is hosting an AIM chatroom for Avatar Big Banger's to hang out and... chat. I'll be in and out all day, but it's a great way to come and hash out your writing woes. The chatroom name is atlabb .
