Some of you may have noticed @BluesClues and I getting up to some...sneaky shenanigans...

Well, be kept in suspense no more! Many of you heard about 20in20 last year: 20 minutes of writing each day, bite-sized chunks of time to write and chip away at whatever projects you're working on at the time. These pieces worked great for Blue and I as we've progressed through the year, both of us stubbornly trudging through each and every day for all of our writing needs. So, we'd like to continue, with
#21in21!!
(new edition comes with a support group included!)

For those of you who don't know what this means, never fear, a simple explanation is in supply! 21in21 is 21 minutes of writing (and the other 21 is, you know, the year '21) each day (of your choosing) dedicated to working on whatever writing project that you have sitting around, waiting for your attention (this can be any form of writing! This is all about productivity!)

To participate, all you have to do is update on your progress! On the 1st of January, a club for 21in21 will be released, and there, you will be able to make a thread where you can update your progress, interact with your fellow 21in21ers, and join in some fun activities we have planned throughout the year 👀! You can also post your status updates on your walls with the tag #21in21 as was the case for #20in20!

This is a great opportunity for everyone! Those of us who are working on novels can start to tackle those long manuscripts (or the planning!), or perhaps you're working on poems that you want to start collecting, or maybe you're a student who has to write up papers or essays and you need the motivation for setting up a time to do so! Never fear! Now you have the very public and peer pressuring group that you need to make you you stay on top of your goals and get all that writing done that all of us so often neglect (what's a writer without some days of lackluster performance?).

So, join us by signing up below! I promise, you won't regret it! (And, you know, there may be some prizes involved too...)

Click the image below to be taken to the new Support Group! This club is where you'll create an accountability thread, participate in fun events, and receive encouragement to keep you on track.

If you ask a question in the thread, we'll answer it! We'll also quote your question and list the answer here in case anyone else has the same one.

Would we be able to count writing reviews in our 21 minutes?


Yes! We'd love for you to spend 21 minutes writing reviews.
I believe in a universe that doesn't care and people that do.

You and I, we are matter, and it matters.

Ooh I'll give it a go!
When you're faced with something you don't understand, I think the most natural thing but also least interesting thing you can be is afraid.
