It’s fun to watch everybody go the extra mile to keep up with the event, especially when they’re feeling good about what they’re writing. And it feels good once we win that daily argument with our brains to sit down and let the words flow, doesn’t it?
Let’s see where we stand after the first six days!

(If there’s question marks, that means I couldn’t figure out where you were posting your results. Also if you notice any other mistakes, please let me know.)
By now you probably know how dastardly the system for getting a Day of Reprieve per every five days of writing can be. Mwahahaha… *ahem*.
The cold steely hand of judgment has fallen upon a few of you, but fear not! You can still play along by continuing to write each day, if even just a little. And we’d love it if you’d stick around and cheer on the survivors as they march onward, towards October 31st.
Thanks, everyone!

It’s so good to see so many people are hitting so high on the word counts/minutes. It’s good to see how other people are doing. Not because I’m competitive and want to beat everyone else… no, not at all ;-)

The 6th day seemed to be the right time to take a little break for many of us, eh? I’m surprised with myself, since I had a bit of a tough week and still took no reprieve. Yay to myself there. And good job everyone!
