THE LONG WALK 10: The name of the first month is Banuary  so what's this then this is where you get to do something about writing that novel you've always had inside you and can finally get all the sounds cool how does it work round about the first day of every month I put a thread up and you post in it to say how much new writing you're gonna post by 2359 PST on the last day of that month. there might be a little general leeway at the end of the month, but don't count on it and don't ask for extensions. lol imma post one word 'lol' there I won lol there's a 4k word minimum. you can pledge more if you like, but 4k is the ante. how many terrible words have been written through this thread and the ones before it? 1,398,000. Some of them might have been good? idk what happens if I gently caress it up every promise has to have a  attached. you fail, you get banned.how should I post my stuff up to you, but a link to a gdoc with comments enabled is best that way you won't restrict your publication options later. can I do short stories sure. It has to be new words (prose, poetry, limericks) but otherwise you can post whatever as long as you make the wordcount can I critpost, shitpost, or shart my jorts don't really care, it's not the thunderdome so just follow the exhortations of your clotted goony heart but keep in mind that detailed crits of longform stuff aren't super useful; better to keep them general. normal CC rules apply so be harsh but helpful is there an irc channel yes, if you've signed up: synirc, #longwalk, but most of us hang out in #thunderdome where are the previous months April, May June July, August, September, October , November, December who tells the mods if i gently caress up and don't make it anyone can call in a failed toxx; if no one else does it I do who checks i've done it i could just not and say i did lol you need to satisfy me, which isn't a high bar tbh, but I'll probably need to see something, up to you what that is how long are you gonna do it for at least a year, but if it's working for people there's no reason it couldn't go on longer have you played ockarina of time penis penis penis Long Walk 10: The name of the first month is Banuary Broenheim: 5k, 5 subs MADE IT LIKE A TINY ELF LABOURING AWAY FOR NOT THAT LONG B/C 5K WORDS ISN'T THAT MANY BUT STILL GrizaPat: 5k, 20 subs SEE ABOVE IN A MADE IT KIND OF WAY Redtonic: 60k, 1 sub HOLY poo poo NOW WE'RE TALKING MADE IT LIKE A WOODWORKER MAKING A LIFE SIZE STATUE OF A HAIRY MAMMOTH Sitting Here: 18k MADE IT LIKE THE WOOD CHOPPER IN LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD WITH THE CAVEAT THAT 'IT' IS A PILE OF WOLF GUTS AND A COUPLE OF DUMB RELATIVES WHO NEED TO SPEND SOME TIME WITH A CUP OF TEA AND A WILD ANIMAL RECOGNITION CHART Ironic Twist: 17k MADE IT LIKE A MADE MAN FROM THE MOVIE GOODFELLAS BUT WITHOUT THE WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAMME, VIOLENT PSYCHOSIS AND COCAINE-INDUCED IMAGINARY HELICOPTERS Spectres of Autism 6k EHHH gently caress IT 11K WORDS THAT'S MADE IT ENOUGH FOR ME Guinness13: 10k MADE IT LIKE YOU SPLAYED IT Ghost Crow: 4k  FAILBURGER but already bannedSystran: ONE HUNNNNNDRED ThOUUUUUUSAND WORRRRRRRRRD!!

angel opportunity posted:Well...here's the thing. I just finished a 50k-word novel, and I just promised myself I'd take weekends off from now on, because I'm writing 25k words Monday-Friday after work at 5k per day. If I don't take weekends off, I bottom on during the week and end up writing fewer words overall. ok
