Hi friends.
This is just a reminder that the second Mini 1000 will start one week from tomorrow on Oct 2. One thousand words a day for six days straight.
We will write every day in a quiet and focused way, as if we are all sitting in the same cafe with our headphones on, giving each other the occasional nodding and supportive glance, except we will be on the internet, linked together with the occasional online check-in and cheer. The vibe is the same though. We are doing this work together.
Do you know what you’re going to write yet? I’ll be working on the second chapter of my new book, only a little bit of which has been written so far. I’ve been doing research and interviews for the past week to fill in some blanks and yesterday on my morning walk I thought to myself: Invent one more conflict. So, I did, and I think it will help.
I am approaching this session of writing armed with ideas and prepared to write. Are you ready?
I’ll see you on October 2.
Jami
Excited for this, too! I'm so glad we get a second shot at 1000 words. I have a week's worth of flash (mix of fiction and essays) that I'll be working on. I'll be at a residency for the month, which means I will actually get time to write these first drafts before I switch gears and edit my novel. Thank you, Jami, for doing this again! ❤️
I am working on three essays for a fellowship and am so excited to have this guidance and community!
