I have done Milli's last two 10K's and I have been surprised at how much I have gotten done. It is so rewarding to check in and see what ever one else is struggling with or what successes they've had. I started a book, actually I wrote stories about my Mikey dog from the prompts in Milli's book "Fear Of Writing" at our writing circle in the Texas Hill Country. I never really thought I'd write a book, I just thought about it. But the 10K days are giving me the boost I needed to blast away at the keyboard. Before I know it, I've written 1000 words. This format is so good for me and I have felt such a since of accomplishment even though the last time I was about 600 words short of my goal for the day. Now that Milli is adding a Saturday I may do both days. Now I feel like I am really writing a BOOK! Me! OMG! Thanks Milli this is the perfect venue for me. I love the support but I still don't feel chained to my PC. And I can write in my jammies! <br /><br />See you there,<br /><br />Peachebean All I can say is just try it out.

I so miss fiction, but at times that inner critic does me the way Lois's does her.<br /><br />I may just take this challenge--at least make an attempt to spend the whole day on nothing but fiction. The beast is nipping at my heels and the procrastinator says I'll get to it later. Vicious cycle.<br /><br />I love writing non-fiction too, and that's what I've been doing for the past few years (plus it pays on demand), but I do miss my characters who have been slumbering for so long.<br /><br />Thanks again for reading my blog and commenting.<br /><br />Patti Thanks for stopping by my blog Milli and leaving a great comment.

I may just take this challenge–at least make an attempt to spend the whole day on nothing but fiction. The beast is nipping at my heels and the procrastinator says I'll get to it later. Vicious cycle.

I love writing non-fiction too, and that's what I've been doing for the past few years (plus it pays on demand), but I do miss my characters who have been slumbering for so long.

Thanks again for reading my blog and commenting.
