I'm an award-winning romantic suspense novelist, but in my free time I love to review books and my fave TV shows, as well as pass along great book deals, and eat Canadian chocolate---not necessarily in that order.

We're Sprinting!
Okay, my friends, we are sprinting! You know the drill . . . come back in fifteen minutes and tell me in the comment trail how many words you wrote! We'll do this for an hour. Come join us!
Oh, I'm sorry. I missed the 15 minute check in. I've only written 289 words in the past 1/2 hour, but I'm doing dialogue, and I suck at interpersonal skills, even for my characters. lol.
Well, for the first time ever during a sprint I have posted a NEGATIVE word count. Had to erase a part so I have negative 52 this quarter. I'm going to finish strong though!
Good job Janice! Getting kids in bed to write should be considered a heroic act. :)
I'm going!
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm doing an editing sprint tonight and got a whole 150 words! It's actually more exciting than it sounds. LOL
ReplyDeleteKids are still resisting arrest, I mean bed. I'm here, though.

ReplyDeleteSee you in 15...
Yay Janice! Keep working on 'em.
ReplyDeleteThat's great, Debra!
I got 205 the last fifteen minutes. :)
I have about 150 words so far. Not great, but I can't resist a little editing.

Oh! I'm burning up the keyboard. 158 more words! lol.
ReplyDeleteDebra, that's awesome! I finished off with another 87 words and I'm really happy with my progress. Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteThank you ladies for helping get me over this hump. Word sprints are so motivating!
Ow! Somewhere during the last 15 minutes I did some editing and lost about 50 words instead of gaining any. Oh, well. It's still a work in progress.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're happy with your progress, Julie! Nice sprinting with you ladies!
I managed about 400 words. Not bad for writing and getting the kids to bed at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel, Debra!
ReplyDeleteJanice, that is AWESOME!
So glad I have you guys. :)
