THIS IS YOUR YEAR TO WRITE!

Do you struggle to write each day?

Here's a motivator: write 100 words a day for one year (you're allowed 45 non-writing days) and you're entered into an electronic raffle to win our annual 8-Day Tuscany Writing Retreat with me, Alan Watt, as well as lots of other prizes.

The challenge is free to everyone! Set up your Screen Name for the Challenge, and use the check in link from the writing prompt to log your writing for each day. Share this page and tell your friends!

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit."

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Step 1: Register below.
Step 2: Beginning Jan 1st, write at least 100 words a day, then check the box on the leaderboard each day (it takes about 5 seconds).

Q: How do you know I wrote 100 words?
A: The honor system, baby.
