Alright y'all! I'm about halfway through Neil Gaiman's MasterClass now! It has been so absolutely wonderful and I can't thank y'all enough for recommending it AND voting on it as one of my experiments (what feels like forever ago bahaha).

A check-in after our crazy writeathon! 🦄

WOOOOOO, we're done, y'all! We did it!

Well, some of us did it. Some of us (ahem, me) called it a night after 22.5 hours. But I managed to pass 10,000 words rewritten and hosted six writing streams! It was a freaking blast and getting to attempt this chall...

Here's the final, PATRON ONLY, live write-in. It will start at 11:00pm CST and go until at least 1:00am, more likely 2:30am when I will FINALLY BE DONE WITH THIS MADNESS.

Fun shout-out idea for my 24-hour writeathon! ☀️

Hey everyone! Thank you all so much for your suggestions for themed snacks and ways to celebrate milestones! I appreciate it. :)

ALRIGHT Y'ALL, I'M DOING THE DUMB THING (again!)

It's 24-hour (re)write-a-thon time!

That's right, I'm doing it again. Only this time, instead of Zero Drafting, I'll be working for 24 hours straight on my Meridian Maps rewrite!

Basically, I'm hoping this time will be different for 2 reasons: the rewrite and when I'm waking up.
