70 Days of Sweat starts today. You only think you’re ready.
I will also be participating in the sweating this round, though mine may not be lasting the full on 70 days. This is the goal:
We’re looking for a total word count between 60-100k. This means between now and May 16, (77 days total, 7 ‘free’ days worked into the calendar), you will write 850-1500 words a day.
Are you up for it? For me, I’ll be finishing the unicorn book, and then getting a big chunk of Knights In Black Polyester done.
A few tricks that work for me when you are staring at that “white bull”:
1. Get up first thing in the morning and write for fifteen minutes before doing anything else. This will set your mind in “writing mode” for the rest of the day.
2. Turn off the email.
3. Read the scene you wrote last night right before going to bed. This will keep it in your mind.
What works for you? What will you be working on for the next two months?
