A Round of Words in 80 Days

So! I didn't find out about A Round of Words in 80 Days until yesterday. I saw people doing it, but I didn't actually go check it out. Stupid of me, really, cause I love these contest type things.

So, I decided that I'd join in, late as I am to the party. I think they're already a month into round two. I'm sooo late, but that's okay. There's still plenty of time left this round and then there's round 3 and 4. . .

Mkay, so my goals are:
  • Write at least 2,000 words a day. (I know this is more words a day than my May Madness challenge, but that's proving to be somewhat easy.)
  • Spend at least 30 minutes a day refining my plot, world building, figuring out my characters and other important things.
And that's it. It'll be a challenge though to do that every day but I hope it will become a habit. So I can write everyday and all that, and finish my book faster and stuff.

Here's the linky for other bloggers who are participating!

Ohh, That sounds like fun. I haven't heard of that before. ^_^ Best of luck.

Sounds interesting. What's it about?

Sara, thank you!

Misha, Round of words happens four times a year, 80 days each round with a break between rounds. You choose your own measurable goal (for each round I think) and try to stick with it for the round!

Hi Taylee!
I'm Vicki, one of the sponsors for ROW80. I just wanted to drop by and say hello. I'm really glad you signed on, and even though it's after the so-called "official" start of the challenge, you're already ahead of a lot of us because you have such clearly defined goals. I'm looking forward to getting to know you better over the course of the challenge.
