THE LONG WALK

18: Sepsis, in September



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 money respect sex nothing you deserve.

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?2,300,000. Some of them might have been good? idk

what happens if I gently caress it up every promise has to have a :toxx: 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 most of us hang out in #thunderdome

where are the previous months April, May June July, August, September, October , November, December, January, February, March, April, May
June, July

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 forever, i guess? we'll see

ock ock who is there I don't know, I'm sorry

Sad to say I'm going to have to eat the ban this month. Let myself get out of the habit of writing every day. I cranked out just under 5,000 words in the last three days, but there's no way I get the other 5,100 in the next two hours. The good news is, I seem to be back rolling again, so here's to next month and the end of laziness.

Almost forgot to post this.

Rewrote some stuff and added some more stuff. The results were garbage but the goal was achieved; this was at 12K. Now it's at 18K!

...I need to learn to write things I don't despise.

first off, a shameful showing on my novel...(4150 words)



...BUT it's ok because I ground out a complete short story that is currently a bloated mess at 12417 words!



This month I decided to let myself count Thunderdome words because I love writing for TD but it was too hard when I was excluding those words from my count.

1852 words

495 words

1090 words

Total for September: 20003

October will be all about subs and novel work.
