Writing weekend marathon, anyone?

Hey, WriMos!

I’m prepping for a 48 hour writing marathon! (Little nervous bc my arm has been a significant factor as to why I have to stop writing.) But I’m icing it, have my prescription RX and every arm/wrist/hand brace on the market.

Anyone wanna join me for a writing weekend? No timed checked ins, just leave a comment whenever you want about your progress, if you’re stressed and need encouragement, doing great and want to share–whatever!

I’ll be checking in on my writing breaks. I’m setting my word count at zero for the weekend.

My project: POPULAR (Canterwood #14)
Goal: 7000 words for the weekend
Guestimated cans of Diet Coke to be consumed: 12
Guestimated # of times I’ll wonder why I’m a writer: 1
Guestimated # of times I’ll love my job: At each successful check in πŸ˜‰

Let me know if you want to be a writing buddy!

    I just added more than 4,000 words tonight — I'm at 13,356 so far. Whew! I probably won't have a chance to write tomorrow (Saturday), but I'll try to check in Sunday — I'm hoping to get another substantial chunk written then. My NaNo screen name is also Katharine Swan, if anyone wants to buddy me.

    Can I join? I wrote 2 novels already and on my third! Chapter 5! I stuck on ideas the girls can do after class! Homework would be kind of boring for a start…I need *Drama*

    Wish I had time to write…:( I have been up every night past midnight doing homework, and am under the impression that junior year is miserable. For a girl who used to write every single day, no exceptions, in excessive amounts, and hasn't written (for fun) since summer vacation, I really wish I could be a part of the writing weekend. It kills me!Good luck to all to the writers!I wish I could take part of it!And to anonymous… inspired from real life, your characters could go home and decide to cook a snack, but let your imagination decide how big the fire is:)
