About Us
In 2015, I started this fun little challenge to get 70 other writers to write 1000 words a day for a year. That group has now grown into an annual challenge, with hundreds of writers, setting personal goals and writing their hearts out. We've written over 300 million words in those few short years and learned the power of building the habit of writing within a supportive environment of accountability.
My admin team of seasoned writers will help you set goals, write words, and build the habit of consistency through weekly accountability, earning fun-themed badges, sprinting opportunities, and group coaching, emails, and contests to help you learn and grow.
Come join us. I'm so excited to see what we discover and achieve in 2022 as we delve into a sea of words.
