Halfway through NaNo and all is well!

Nov 15, 2012 18:56

Instead of doing proper NaNo this year, I'm doing a NaNo-like thing called "Trying to get the Nano badge on 750words.com." The Nano badge is available any month of the year if you manage to write 50,000 words in a month without ever missing a consecutive day of writing at least 750 words.

Wow... please send me a link to the nano like thing... because if I'd been on this since February, I'd probably have a whole bunch of badges by now! 750 a day isn't a problem. For the SAME fic it is!"

And... I'm not the only one who dreams about my online beta's and fanfic friends? That's nice to know!

It's at 750words.com - you get awesome little badges for keeping a streak going, plus it does some pretty entertaining linguistic analysis of each day's writing and makes a little word cloud for you and everything. :)

Okay, thank you so much! I'm signed up, wrote my first tentative entry, and am really impressed with all the encouraging features. So... would it help if we followed each other? Just thought I'd ask... I'm signed up as ButterflyGhost if you're interested.

And really... it's a wonderful site. I'm thinking I might use it to push me on when I am worried about writers block, or getting 'stuck' with plot or story.

Yay, I'm glad it's working for you! I don't follow anyone on 750--it's just me and the words and the little badges. :)

I realised you have to pay for that privilege anyway. No, I think I'll stick to the joy of the little badges. It's fun! A great way to break writer's block as well.
