Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I should, but in the last three years I've yet to complete the challenge. I'm too burned out to even think about it right now. I have no ideas. {sigh}
What genre are you aiming for this year?

memoir called heavy drapes. i think i'm just going to write some vignettes from my life that helped to define who i am. probably out of order.
@Lillyfield41 You've inspired me. I went ahead and signed up. It's not going to be very good, but I might make a sizable dent in the 50,000-word goal this time if I set (and stick to) a strict schedule.
Yes!

I'm lillyfield41 there too.
I did it three years running. It is an interesting exercise in discipline, mental effort, and frustration. I think it can be either constructive or destructive, depending on the individual. If nothing else, it's a great lesson in not editing on the fly. I must admit, it's not a lesson I learned, at least not much. Good luck to you and enjoy the ride.

I've been participating since 2013. i made the goal once. ha! i have finished two of the stories listed on my profile. This morning I had the thought of participating again.
I had a dream last night... I thought of the perfect beginning for a story. Then I thought to myself (in the dream) This is SO important I'm going to remember. Then later in the dream, I had not remembered and chastised myself. I woke up without remembering also.
I think the discipline of writing every day is what i need right now to get back into the swing of it.
