Welcome to the Wednesday Writing Sprints.

Wednesday writing sprints are here! Feel free to jump right in. It doesn’t matter which genre you write in, all are welcome. Fiction, freelance, lyrics, poetry—just be a writer today.

This event happens one day per week. It’s when you dedicate the entire day strictly to writing sprints. Try to turn off email, social media–anything that distracts you and just write.

The time can be spent outlining characters, plots, scenes, etc. or it can be spent using it for a writing marathon or getting caught up on freelance work. The focus is to simply devote more time to your writing.

Enjoy and share your progress throughout the day in comments.

• If you don’t have a timer, be sure to download something like cool timer. That’s the one I use. I love it!

• You can race the clock for however long you like; 30, 45 or 60 minutes. I prefer 30 minutes. I get more done if I don’t give myself too much time. See what works best for you.

• Post your progress in the comments section.
• It’s not about word counts–not a daily count, at least.
• It’s about planting your butt in the chair and being a writer and writing as many words as you can in a 30 minute race against the clock.

The most important thing is….HAVE A BLAST & KICK SOME WORD ASS!

Happy Writing Sprints!

The final Wednesday Writing Sprint for February will be on the 29th. You won’t get to write on this day for another four years.

In honor of Leap Year, we are going to challenge ourselves with something around the theme of 29.

For writers like Nathan Devlin, we will personally challenge him to write at least 29,000 words that day. :)

The rest of us will do something more manageable, like 2900 words. LOL

The main point is to be a writer and to really challenge yourself on this day, since it only happens once every 4 years.

Be sure to look for that post next week. Go ahead and leave a comment so your comments will be approved beforehand. Some of our writers are in different time zones, so the sprint post goes live at 9:00 pm CT on Tuesday night.

Have a great week!
