Hanfic Sprints!

[prettyzombiegirl]

Since I didn't see this posted here yet, I thought I'd do a little promoting...
For those of you having a hard time working on your Hanson stories (having a hard time getting motivated and making progress) Brittany has created a chat room for all of us writers to participate in the first ever Hanfic Sprints. It's really easy to join us just go here for a tutorial on how to enter the chat!
- A sprint is basically a writing exercise for a group of people hosted by a moderator where the mod sets a time limit for writing and your goal is to write as much as you can [w/o editing, using backspace, etc] within the set time. Usually you'd write for 10 minutes then you'd take a 10 minute break, hence why they call it a sprint.

I have been participating in sprints while working on my NaNoWriMo novel and it is because of them that I have gotten as far as I have. Sometimes you just need an excuse to get work done, well, this is it! So, please join us tonight, November 17th @ 10PM EST!!! Everyone is welcome! Even if you'd rather work on your NaNo novel, just come hangout!

Well, last night we met again and a lot of us really amped up our word counts! Like to epic proportions! We even stayed until almost 2am! Fun times!
So, once again we will be meeting tonight, Monday, Nov. 23rd @ 10PM EST.

ALSO, we created an LJ community for updating everyone on the current sprint schedules and challenges. So, instead of updating here every day (because sometimes I forget) go to the journal and add it, much easier!

We sprinted Thanksgiving break away!! It was great to hangout with the Hanfic girls hehe! Now, we wanna know everyone's availabilities...

We've added another poll about the sprints over at the livejournal community - community.livejournal.com/hanficsprints/

We plan to keep the sprints going daily through December 9th. Then after that we want to set a schedule for sprinting 3 times a week, so if you could head over to the community and let us know which three nights work best for you, we would greatly appreciate it.

We will also sprint more in conjunction to various challenges or contests going on, but we want to keep a regular schedule the rest of the time to keep everyone writing!
