Word War Day Three!

Jill here. Welcome to Day 3 of this week's word war. I just finished King's Blood, so I'm taking a peek at the edits for Broken Trust this week. I'm also at a writer's conference, so that's always an interesting time to write because there is always someone around to brainstorm with!

If this is the first you've heard of the word war, here's what's happening:

What is it? A word war is when you and another writer (or in this case, lots of other writers!) compete to see who can write the most words in a designated period of time. 

This word war began on Monday and will end Friday night. It's a come-and-go, write-when-you-can style of war, so it's never too late to join!

The goal is to buckle down and focus on your manuscript whenever you can, make good use of your writing time, and encourage each other as you do. Hopefully you'll meet new writers and deepen friendships as the weekend goes on.

Here's how you can connect with each other:

1. In the comments section of the blog. Something as simple as "Just wrote 1,000 words in the last hour!" is fine. Or you can challenge each other to word wars. There's strength in being able to encourage each other and in knowing that others are hard at work too.

2. On Twitter, using the hashtag #GTWwordwar. 

Keep on writing!
