Young Writers Society

An optional weekly challenge to keep the creative juices flowing and to help you take care of yourself this Camp season.

*Each week of Camp NaNo, a new checklist will be posted here
*Three creative challenges for the week
*Three self-care challenges for the week
*Ask questions or share which ones you tried and how they went here!

Happy Camping!! 💜

Welcome to Camp! Our first week is short, so the challenge is short as well. Best of luck this week as we set out towards our goals! YOU GOT THIS!!

Ooh I did #2 for the self-care challenge today, and it really helped make the positive parts of the day seem more tangible. (I'd already done the two creative challenge tasks by the time I saw this was posted too haha <3)

@Carlito - we can track our challenges in this thread, right? >.>

@Liminality love it!! I figured most people have already done the two creative challenge tasks, but JUST IN CASE. Wanted to start everyone off easy but don't you worry, they'll get harder!!

Ah okay thank you!!

Week five: July 25th - July 31st

You’ve done it! You’ve made it to the final week of Camp NaNo. Whether you’re on track to hit your goal or you’re nowhere close, we’re proud of you for making it this far.
Remember this is 100% optional and designed to help keep the creative juices flowing and also take care of ourselves during Camp NaNo.

Your creative tasks are:
- Challenge someone to a word war
- Write about what would happen if your cast found themselves in your favorite book, movie, or TV show
- Share a snippet that you’ve written so far that you’re proud of in your thread or on your wall

Your self-care tasks are:
- Read something for fun for at least a half hour (longer if you can!)
- Have a dance break! Pick your favorite song (or two) and dance like no one’s watching
- We’re so close to the end! Encourage a fellow Camper to cross that finish line!
