Welcome to August! (What? Where did July go?)
This is the thread to get and give support for daily writing goals. All other stuff goes in other threads, like the Braggatorium or Life of Crime and Chocolate. Thank yew!
How did your July go? What are your August goals?
I accomplished and actually well surpassed my July goals. Given what July was like for my family, I'm pretty darn pleased with that.
August: I'm sticking with 10K again. I'm hoping for more, but my fingers hurt.
Now, for The Challenge: This is in addition to the support thread, and you in no way are required to participate. The Challenge is a competitive race to see who can accumulate the most words in one month. We've done this in the past and it's a blast. Here are The Rules:
The Rules:
1. Word Count is key. No minimum. (example: if you only get 20 words for the day, it still counts.)
2. The person with the highest WC in a day gets bragging rights for that day.
3. All participants are on the honor system.
4. All participants must have a counter or post their total WC somewhere in their signature.
5. Contest will end at midnight EST on the last day of the month.
6. Winner is the person with the highest WC for the month. Prize is bragging rights. Use them wisely.
And that's it. Let us know if you're in, both by mentioning it in-thread and by starting a word count in your sig line.
So whether you're here to write at your own pace, to challenge others to the race, or just to cheer, welcome to August!
