We're Sprinting!

Okay fellow writers and friends!  We are sprinting!

You know the drill.  Everyone comes back to the blog at 8:15, 8:30. 8:45 and 9:00 and reports their word count in the comment section.

Let's do this!  Ready, set, go!!!

Hello! I'm writing!

Julie Coulter Bellon said...

Hey, Debra! I got 654 for the first fifteen minutes. Woot!

KaseyQ said...

483. Hi y’all!

Debra Erfert said...

Oh, man! I'm such a slug. I've only got 185.

Hi, Kasey!

Julie Coulter Bellon said...

Hey, Kasey! And Debra, I only got that many because I've been dying to get to the computer all day and get a scene down. :)

See you in fifteen!

Julie Coulter Bellon said...

456 more for me. This chapter is shaping up really nicely!

KaseyQ said...

Up to 984!

Debra Erfert said...

You ladies are ripping! I only got another 208 words this quarter.

Julie Coulter Bellon said...

370 that time. My babysitter has been called away so I don't know how good this last quarter will be, but I'm going to try to finish strong with a child in my lap. LOL

You guys are doing great!

KaseyQ said...

1494 total. Go Julie!

Debra Erfert said...

161 more words, and now that you mention distractions, Mike has the television on and watching American Pickers. Since we're in hotel, I can't exactly go to another room for quietness. A few more minutes, and a few more words!!!

Julie Coulter Bellon said...

Finished with another 330 so I now have 2786 total word count on my novella. I'm really happy with that! Thanks so much for joining me Debra and Kasey! You guys are awesome. I love how motivating it is to have people to sprint with. :)

Julie Coulter Bellon said...

And Debra gets extra kudos for being in a hotel and still sprinting! :)

KaseyQ said...

Finished at 1966. Argh! Just shy of 2000. Oh, well. ;-) And can I just say, the writing is terrible? I swear, if I use one more cliche phrase I’m going to smack myself. But it’s all about the word count, right? LOL! Thanks guys!

Debra Erfert said...

Glad to know you have so much done on your novella, Julie! Yay!

I got only 80 more words, but I'm terribly tired. Although I'm happy with what I did do.

Great job, Kasey!

Julie Coulter Bellon said...

I think we're all awesome and we have more words now than we started with. That's what counts! :) See what I did there? Counts? Haha!

I came in late and got 396 words for the last 20 minutes or so, sorry. We're on a different schedule with night time feedings, so it's going to be harder for me to participate. booooo!
