The Great Tea Debacle Smackdown Exchange

What?!

I"m sort of jealous of the tea debacle folks.
I want in. but full time job writing proposals, plus full time mom, plus full time obsession with reading means I'll barely make it through nano.
I'm sceered.

Mmmm tea, where does the smackdown fit in?

writers, as many words in a month as possible, winner gets all the tea.

Count me in

Shoot, I easily do over 2k a day . . .

Oh. Tech writing doesn't count???

Back to the coffee.

I wish you guys luck! It sounds like you are going to have a great time.

Nope, non-fiction writing doesn't count, or else I'd make toast of the competition between my marketing collateral, school papers and business email correspondence.

If you want in, go to The Tea Debacle page on PeeDee/Carrie's blog and read about your illustrious competition (link below in my siggy). And pony up your contribution to the winner's booty. I'll be thrilled with the additions to my winnings!

Oh cripes, it's a thread, now all sorts of people are going to join, and I have to keep track of it all AND compete and and and

Ray? Hold me.

I'll have to think about this for a moment...(I don't know what I'm getting myself in for)

I'd say Celina's got a pretty good tactic there --keep you busy managing all of the stats, while the rest of us continue churning out words...

The 1st move of the Plan to Defeat PeeDee is going well.

muahahahahahah

Okay, Official Announcement (I'll post this to the blog page in a moment)

The official cut-off limit for this thing is 15 people. That leaves a few more open slots, if anyone wants in.

This started as just a goofy thing between a couple of friends in the blog-o-sphere (and I should point out, this is not AW sponsored at all) and it's swollen fast. I dig it, it's cool and fun, but...

...it's also the first time we've done this, and there are tricky background details that we have to figure out. So we have to keep it small.

BUT...

We are working out a way to do this every six months. Partially because I like the idea of every six months getting to spend a month intensely writing a novel. So even when the limit is reached this time, it'll be around again.

15 people!

*goes away to whimper in a corner a bit*

Sorry. Couldn't contain my glee.

Well, I'm off to learn how to hold my little pinky up while sipping daintily from a tea cup, so as to have the proper affectation when I win all of this wonderful tea.

Oh, and back to plotting the 2nd move in the Plan to Defeat PeeDee....

You guys are going to need some serious plans. My Secret Weapon and I, we will eat you.

Yeah, the won't let me count my academic writing, either.


Seriously, people, listen to Pete. (I can't believe I said that.) This is some friendly taunting that has taken a life of its own. That's all. Please don't make us sacrifice Pete to appease the masses. That would be just... wrong.

Especially since I brought sexyback for you people...!


(and if I defeat a HUGE number of people, no one will talk to me. So I'd better just defeat 15 or so.)

"Boobies" will not work. Get thee behind me, vile woman!
