The Good Patrons of 750 Words

1 cup

For years and years, I’ve wisted after doing Nanowrimo. I’ve gotten started, and stopped. I’ve given up. Too far behind. Too frustrated trying to write plot.

In the middle of October, I discovered 750words.com. I gave it a try. I got a ten day streak. I started pushing for Cheetah and Hamster.

11/29, I wound up at 50008 words for the month of November, all of it fiction. It’s not ‘a novel’, not remotely; I didn’t try to discipline myself to telling a story in order, but jumped all over writing scenes from various times and perspectives. But it could be a heck of a good start on one.

And I wrote 50,000 words of fiction in the month. (Plus whatever I write 11/30.)

That’s pretty awesome, and it feels good to know I can do it.

And I don’t think I would have without 750words.com
