Murlocs Gone Wild

How is everything going? Going at a nice steady pace? Or are you behind wondering how you are going to catch up.

Don't worry, we are here to help! What you need is a BOOST(tm).

Seriously though, remembering to write or having time to do it may been pretty impossible right now. But sometimes, knowing others are doing it with you can help you get your writing groove on.

A friend and I have been prompting each other through out the week and it has really helped me catch up when I was behind 3000 words on Monday and now have a good buffer.

How it works:
We will have two group write sprints, one in the morning (11 EST, 10 CT, 9 PST) and one in the afternoon (4 EST, 3 CT, 2 PST).

You write for at least 30 minutes and at the end of your thirty minutes, see how much you have written and post your sprint count here. The point isn't to see who has written the most, just to show that you are writing and making progress.

If you want to continue to write the sprint, go right ahead! The sprint is only there as a jumping point, set to start each day at those times.

You don't have to participate, but we hope you will!

I'm in for the morning sprint, depending on environmental hazards. Sadly, I'm out for the afternoon one, since I'm typically on the road home at that point, but I'm -so- in for the morning one.

Well. It was about two-thirty my time that I started. It is now three-fifty. I've written 902 words in that time as well as browsed a few web pages [take ten minutes, maybe].

I am feeling productive...

Although technically behind on the sprint time [should have started about two], I did write for a fair bit.

And that's what counts, eh?

I'm in for the morning one for sure. The afternoon one is kind of iffy. It's right near the end of one of my classes... I'll have to get to that one just a tad later than the rest of the folks, but I'll try!

That is great, Lin! It is more than okay if you don't start at the same time as the sprint. The ponit of it is a reminder to write and that others will be doing the same.

Congrats on getting 902 words closer to the goal! That is awesome!
