I think it's so great that you're doing this! 10,000 words is a lofty goal. Good luck. And just remember: it's not about the number of words, it's about choosing the right words. So sometimes the word count gets lower (especially while editing.)

oh great.

It's about the word count in these challenges.

Edit after the month.

I disagree with this statement because I change my mind about things halfway through so I need to edit the previous part or it's inconsistent!

Okay soup did you still think we should have one of these every other month, because I'm probably going to need another try at this rate :T

I disagree with this statement because I change my mind about things halfway through so I need to edit the previous part or it's inconsistent!

I read some advice from someone who had won like 6 monthly writing challenges of 50K and they said just put excerpted parts at the bottom because it counts as writing you did and word count.

Name: Kayetlin
Title: Untitleed.
How many words: 200,000
Excerpt:
3:27 AM flashed on the clock and I- Valene- woke up screaming. With my nightmares I’ve had a lot of waking up screaming in the middle of the night. I don’t know what to do; I don’t know why this is happening, I only wanted it to stop. Every night when I wake up I see shadows surrounding me as much as I want to stop it, I can’t. No one believes me, not my friend or my sister. I think about when I was seven years old and my parents died. The times we had together- me and my parents. I smile as I remembered going to the zoo, and her father and her eating ice cream, during the fireworks. “He ordered Chocolate Chip Mint, and he got me a Double Decker.” I whispered to myself. The thoughts of my parents soothes me and I fall back asleep around 3:46 AM.
~~~~
I’m not your typical 16 years old; I’m always the kind of girl who no one actually accepts, the weirdo of the school. With my parents dead nothing was going right. I guess I have my best friend Mallory, your typical goth girl. She is far from the “popular” kid in school. You can see her in the hallways just listening to her iPod not paying any attention to anyone. I’ve known her since we were like… 12.


****
I decided to delete my other one since it didn't interest me anymore .___.

Scrapped. And I started a new one. I had started my new one earlier this month and really got into it.

Re: N.I. Writing Challenge (unofficial and stupid name!)

Book Name: LETTER TO MY DAUGHTER

Entry 1
Hello, Annie Ryel Swann. Yes. You aren't even born and I know your name. I am your mother- Christa Swann. I have dark brown eyes, and blonde hair. I am 20 years old. I am writing this journal to you. By the time this journal is done I will be dead. I love you with my whole heart and hope that you love me as well. Okay. So...

Your father is Kaiden Swann. He has hazel eyes and brown hair. No one could ever replace him. We met when we were 13. For me 13 is my most lucky number because I met him. He is a swimmer. He is trying to get to the Olympics. I am a artist, I paint and sell it. I am pretty popular now.

The most popular stuff now in music is

Call Me Maybe- Carly Rae Jensen
Party Rock Anthem- LMFAO
Katy Perry
Adele

Songs like that.  I like Adele best.

The top movies are-

Hunger Games
Five-Year-Engagement.

Movies like that. Some people think the world will end in 2012. I can't wait to prove them wrong. I think that is all for this entry. Bye.

****
Part  1 of my book.
