My Plan For This Blog

Hello, and welcome to my new blog! If you just came here from my main blog, you are probably waiting for details about the 100 for 100 challenge, and here they are.

Here are some of the rules from the Go Teen Writers! blog post about it. Click the link to read the rest, and to sign up yourself. Tomorrow is the last day to sign up.

1. Beginning on Friday, August 23rd, you write 100 words on the project of your choice. It doesn't have to be novel - it can be a short story, a book of poems, a memoir. It can be a new project or a work in progress. Because the goal of the 100 for 100 challenge is to make progress on one manuscript, you're only able to count words for one project during the 100 days. With a couple exceptions:
1. If you're participating in National Novel Writing Month, you're welcome to put aside your 100 for 100 book, and begin counting your Nano novel toward your 100 for 100 challenge.
2. If you finish the book you were working on for the 100 for 100 challenge, you can continue with the challenge with a new project.
2. You write 100 words a day everyday until November 30th. You are allowed one "grace day" per week (sometimes life happens, plus many people take a day off a week for religious reasons and we want to respect that) and one "grace week" per contest. So if one week you only write 300 words, you just count up what you have, and press on.
3. You can write more than 100 words each day if you like. Most people find they do. But you can't write 700 words on Monday and nothing the rest of the week and still participate in the challenge. The idea is to develop a writing discipline. So some days you might write 1,000 words and others you might barely get in your 100.

Here are is my personal plan for this challenge:

I am going to count any writing that is published on a blog as counting towards the 100 for 100 challenge. Two to four days a week, I will be posting on my main blog, Reading, Writing and Graduating Highschool. Every other day, I will be posting here. My main goal with this blog is to post short fiction (between 100 and 1,000 words). I'll probably post some other things here too, such as poetry and short essays, but all the more "bloggy" stuff like book reviews, sponsored posts, and general life stuff will stay on my regular blog.

The rules will change on November 1, 2013, when NaNoWriMo begins. On that day, I will begin a novel that I will be working on for the whole month of November, which is the last month of the challenge. All my words for that will count towards my 100x100 challenge.

There you go. Tomorrow, I will be posting here for the first time!
