Threesome Saves The Blogosphere

I'm throwing out at big GOOD LUCK to our blog buddies that have dedicated the next 70 days to sweating. I'm referring to Alison Kent's novel in 70 days challenge, of course. Writing 70,000 to 100,000 words in that time period will stretch your creative muscles, for sure, but I have faith in you all - you talented bunch, you!

But alas, the blogs will suffer. Amy, Christine, TL, Red, Rhi -- y'all think it's going to be easy to keep up with your blogs AND your 4-6 pages a day? Especially since a few of you have releases upcoming, which all but paralyzes your creativitity for a few days, right Red?

But do not fear for Sparky Duck and I pledged to keep the blogosphere running. Perhaps we can recruit Nicholas to help carry the load...
Hey -- that could be a promising m/f/m threesome! *smirk*

I can do both! I know I can...or at the very least I'll try. So far so good for me. I've written 14 pages so far in two days. And I'm not done for tonight either!

We're all crazy...

Sparky Duck said...

well, I do believe we are all crazy, authors or not authors.

my question is which end do i get, oh no ignore that, that was bad

I agree with sparky duck, we're all crazy, hehe!

You're right, Wylie, it's gonna be one heckuva challenge to write my 4-6 pages a day and keep up TN Text Wrestling and help my cats keep up their blogs... but I'm a determined woman! :-D

I'm more psyched over this Sweaty Writing Challenge (LOL) than I've been over anything in a long time -- I really needed this! :)

I can do both, but thanks to you and Sparkduck for being there in case I slack!!!

I'm not going to be 'sweating' -- besides I generally write 2 - 3K a day, and have written two 85K novels in the past six months, so I think I'm ready for a bit of a rest.

But as for blogging I'm planning to keep blogging from Dallas, so let's make it a foursome, Wylie. And hopefully on Wednesday night I'll have some pictures of me and Red Garnier at the Author's Signing in Dallas to post!

Christine, TL, Amy - jeez guys, I was trying to give y'all a graceful exit from daily blogging, but you uber-multi-taskers just don't know how to take a favor! LOL!!

Sparky - you naughty little duck

Leah - a foursome it is! Can't wait to see the pics from Dallas. I'm so jealous I could spit...

Susan Helene Gottfried said...

Can we make the foursome a fivesome? I've even got a contest that'll run during this time (but you have to read a book -- or more -- and post a review online).

Wylie Kinson said...

SHG! I thought you were doing the Sweaty 70 too!!
Well-we're a fivesome then :)

Sparky, Nicholas? Feeling squished yet?

That's the best offer I've had for a long time!
