Titles: 1, Me: 0
What I mean to say is, on the 29th and 30th of this month (so, like, in a couple days), I'm going to be doing my semi-annual outline-a-thon!
(I actually already started outlining some stories in advance, but I'm going to make a BIG push on Sunday and Monday!)
I really enjoyed the outline-a-thon I did at the tail end of 2024. Now that I've finished ACFoC and will soon finish the novella I've been fast drafting (fingers crossed), I figured it was time to revisit this! My To Be Written list has only grown in the past six months. And the only way to make it a tradition is to do it again!
So this Sunday, at 1:45pm CDT, we'll have our first outline-a-thon stream! You can find the link in the embedded video above or right here.
And then on the final day of June, Monday the 30th, we'll have another outline-a-thon stream at 6:00pm CDT! :)
That's not all!! (Drumroll, please.)
The following weekend (from Friday the 4th to Sunday the 6th), I'm attempting another 24-hour write-a-thon!
It'll be a little different this time, though. In honor of the 24hrnovel challenge that I unfortunately missed earlier this week, my goal is simply to work on a story for a full twenty-four hours. I'm going to use a timer and everything!!
Which project though!? I don't know yet! Hopefully one will jump out as Ready to me during the outline-a-thon.
I'll host a 5K Friday stream on Friday, July 4th on YouTube, but otherwise I'm planning to keep the streams for these two weekends to Patreon-only events. It'll be a little more chill this way. The chaos of the challenge will be enough. :)
After the outline-a-thon this weekend, I'll jump over with more dates/times for the 24-hour write-a-thon, our Crafts & Drafts Hobbit discussion (!!!), and maybe some more personal updates ahead of my next adventure.
I have a lot of footage to work through from the past few weeks, so hopefully I'll get it all up soon. Otherwise we'll chitty chat all things writing retreat and cruise on the livestream soon.
Hope y'all have had a WONDERFUL end to your month. We kicked things off so strong with the 1000 Words of Summer, I'm hoping June still has a little more energy left for me. :)
Happy writing, friends!
