Book sprint at Google Summer of Code Doc Camp
Have any of you guys ever participated in a book sprint?

Nanowriteweek?
I wish caffeine had that effect on me. Or anything. I've had half a tub of Ben & Jerry's tonight and all I can do is listen to pop music over and over and over.
This appears to be a group effort (yes, I read the link) to write a non-fiction instructional book (which jibes with the Google Summer of Code thing), pretty different from the usual novel thing. Also, I'm guessing each person only wrote a fraction of the book, even if all participants read it over.Book sprint at Google Summer of Code Doc Camp

At a guess I would say lots of preparation and a high typing speed.
I find it pretty challenging to get a thousand words per day written. I've managed it for a few weeks at a time, but that took a lot of discipline and planning and it didn't feel like a natural pace for me. You should be proud of your 1k.I'm quite proud of it, as I tend to have small handwriting. And when I typed it out later, it came close to 1k words.
Nowhere near any other other counts I see on this thread.
