I finally gave in to [livejournal.com profile] katayla's rather strong and persistent suggestions and joined [livejournal.com profile] getyourwordsout.

It's a place where you pledge to write certain number of words throughout the year. It's interactive, so you have to let them know your word count every month. It's not a contest, but it's surely a good way of keeping yourself in track.

I for one, love tracking my word count and writing towards a word count goal, so yeah, that's pretty awesome for me. BUT, I kinda chickened out and pledged for 150K only :P You have 150, 200, 250, 300 and 350K (which is "insane").

Just a friendly promotion :D Go pledge, then request to join and write! May 2011 bring you lots of awesome ideas and a ton of words to write ♥

In one episode, whatever animal is torturing her tells Jaye "get her words out"

You totally should, it was such a brilliant show that fucking evil tv execs killed like halfway through the first season. Fuckers.

I bought the dvd when it came out and just wanted more :/

*considers watching it again*

Haha yes. I am not sure what I was thinking when I picked my number, as I am also deciding to spend at least 3 months of next year with limited or extremely limited internet access....wooo journals?

Love of writing makes you do crazy things all.the.time.

Considering you only need internet access for check-ins, it shouldn't affect the amount of writing you'll do in a completely ideal world, right?

HAHA pretty much.

HMM yeah. I will probably only miss one check in, at most. For THAT reason :P

LOL. YAY! I HAVE MAGICAL POWERS OF PERSUASION!

I'm glad you joined! I think it'll be fun, even if we all fail. :D

YOU DO! YOU CERTAINLY DO! =))

I hope we don't fail, but yeah, it's gonna be so much fun. I hope I can keep up.
