RE: The Results of the Contest for Contests
Thank you, @freewritehouse. I look forward to seeing the new contests come through. For the one I suggested, I’m of course especially excited to be motivated to write, but also to see what kind of ‘monsters’ people bring to life from their minds. :)
We are working on saving up some SBD and then, a new contest will be happening!!! Looking forward to your participation!! And, of course, we love to see you here and at the daily prompt often!
Thank you, I’d love to do the daily prompts and I have attempted a couple but never finished them. Even though it’s 5 minutes, I habitually re-edit and cannot move to the next line. It’s always just about time to feel like I have a clear mind to consider things properly. Hopefully, with a week-long, fortnightly or even monthly contests, it will give me more opportunity to think concepts through and then invest the time. I’ll keep checking back in. :)
Try using the most dangerous writing app. It forces you to keep on writing - or it will erase everything you wrote. The idea of the freewrite is to let go of the critical mind and just write.That can take you to places you never thought possible before.
If you must edit - do it after you are done writing for the 5 minutes. Give it a try - nobody expects perfection or even something good. Sometimes, we just have to allow ourselves to not write good stuff.... And magic can happen...
