all-day writing sprint


Image

Time to write and time to shine! Let’s get things started - this contest is all about getting some writing done and as much as possible on the given day. Keep in mind, there’s absolutely no pressure; this is all about motivation and giving you a small push towards your own writing progress, with a few awards up for grabs. ;D

Start and End: Saturday, July 12


Guidelines


  • Claim your spot and sign up before/on the starting day.
  • If you’d like to get a reminder tag a day before, let it know in your post.
  • This contest is restricted to the given day only, therefore only writing done on this day counts.
  • Add your total word count in your post, update as many times as you like on the day only.
  • Have fun!!

You know, ଳjellyfishଳ can't swim or shine on their own, but once they absorb light from around them, they're able to shine for themselves! So maybe...I can, too! If I'm around you, maybe I'll be able to shine, too? -
