These #1000word moments always come at just the right time (or maybe it's always the right time?). Thanks for doing this, and for all the good creative community energy that comes with it!

I look forward to January 7th. This will be my 2nd Mini 1000, and this time, I'm prepared (have gone through the check list), and pulled out a fresh notebook too. I love the crystal bit Jami, it being meant to inspire and warming the brain--so nice. Thank you for doing this. Teresa

I’ll be in Key West for the Mini 1000 Winter remembering falling in love with you on stage a year ago for the 2022 Key West Lit Seminar. You were the best in show that weekend. πŸ™ƒ

I was THRILLED to get this announcement, since I am trying to get new momentum for a fiction project that stalled out a bit when I got busy with work in November. Hooray for #1000words and #mini1000s!!! Thanks Jami!

My first 1000 Days...really looking forward to it! And thank you Jamie for sharing your immense talent with us, and for your great generosity as a writer -- I can't tell you how much I appreciate it, and you!

I love that it starts on the 7th instead of the 1st. It really takes the pressure off. I feel better about 2023 already, thanks Jami! Excited to get started on what I hope will be a year full of writing!

No this is just a low key version of it, I send out the letters, you write. These comments will be open every day though!

Hello Jami and everyone :) This is my first #1000Word challenge, and I’m excited to start. All writing is on our own, correct? There is no upload, etc, is there?
