Hello! I figured I would add this in to give you guys an idea of what the thirty days will look like and how it will help you start up that story you've always wanted to write but could never really start, or that one story you just can't seem to move forward with. I personally am going to be doing all of this with you guys, and I think it will be so fun! Let me know if there's any concerns or questions holding you back! I want this to be enjoyable for everyone. So, without further-a-do this is how the writing challenge will look:
Day 1: write a summary of your novel idea Day 2: write a paragraph about your main character Day 3: write a summary of your main character's main relationships Day 4: world-building! Write a summary of where your story takes place Day 5: create a playlist to the theme of your story Day 6: create a moodboard or pinterest board as inspiration for your story Day 7: draft an outline of your story Day 8: draft your first chapter Day 9: draft your second chapter Day 10: draft your third chapter Day 11: revision/inspiration/rest day! Day 12: write 800 words Day 13: write 900 words Day 14: write 700 words Day 15: write 1k words Day 16: write 800 words Day 17: write 500 words Day 18: write 1k words Day 19: write 700 words Day 20: write 900 words Day 21: revision/inspiration/rest day!
