Time to match something up with a day of the week! I think Wordy Wednesday was a great little title, but I really want a Word-War.
After installing an awesome writers software called Write or Die I have discovered how truly easy it will be for me to make my NaNoWriMo goal this year and to entertain a real word war.
If you don’t know what a word war is, it is a competition between two writers with a set amount of time. The first writer that either reaches the goal or writes more than the other, wins! Easy, right?
Write or Die makes this competition easy. I love that you can actually see the progress bar of your opponent updating next to yours. Okay, so there was a mini review on the software.
What I am going to do every Wednesday is challenge the world to a Word War. First person to return my invitation gets the war. I will tweet my unique word war id number every Wednesdays at 1pm (Arizona time -7:00) and post the results.
I think this is a great way to encourage writing, maybe help some NaNoWriMo buddies keep their word goals and get to compete with fellow writers. I hope that Word-War Wednesdays become a tradition!
And I will keep you posted! As always, thanks for reading!
Comment if you liked it!
What are your tools for keeping on goal with your writing this NaNoWriMo?

I’ve been looking at this software for a while. Thanks for the good words, I’m going to get it!
