Need structure? Want to find camaraderie? Tired of writing in solitude? Join our virtual office space. At TPR someone is always in the cubicle next to you.
Here's how the practice room works:
First of all, EVERYONE IS WELCOME!
At the given date and time (weekly schedule posted below), meet at post 1. It appears 30 minutes in advance of the hour (barring unusual circumstances), giving us a chance to set our goals in the comments. Declare your goal. Work toward furthering your project; word counting, revision, or whatever it needs - you decide.
Post 2: WE ARE UNPLUGGED! announces our hour. During that time, we write! The rules: no procrastinations. Please feel free to make tea or stand on your head as needed.
When the time is up, Post 3 appears with a chat box and we will get a chance to converse, or you can comment old-style to tell us what you got done! We are dying to know!
Read about a typical first time
here. I make the schedule every Sunday. It will remain up in the side bar until I post the next week's schedule (feel free to make requests for particular times in the comments - I take them into serious consideration). All additions will be noted in in the side bar. Come back and check it often. (The schedule times are listed in Eastern Time Zone but the blog posts in Central - Tina's time zone. Our visitors are from all over the map.)
Please email me with questions, comments, or just to introduce yourself! tina dot laurel at gmail dot com
Don't forget to sign the guestbook at the bottom of the page!
I will do some writing for WIBIJ. And also return to chapter 8. Which I still need to finish up but I don't expect to get much accomplished on it today.
ReplyDeletei'm going to write more on my current wip. i took a break this morning and forced myself to get some other stuff done around the house. so now i'm really excited to jump back in and start writing some more.
ReplyDeleteSo, Kate, I see you believe in forcing when it comes to housework but not wips. Interesting...
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I'm glad you are excited.
never mind. my husband just called and i have to go run something down to his office, so i wont even be home for the next hour.
ReplyDeleteoh well, i guess i'll have to do my writing later tonight.
Okay! Lets call this whole thing off! I'm calling in my dogs (or posts as the case may be!).
ReplyDeleteSorry I wasn't here on time! Just looked at the clock and went OOPS!. 2 seems to creep up on me too fast.
ReplyDeletei just got home. lets see how much i can write in four minutes :)
ReplyDeleteCasey! Sorry I called it off before you got here! I hope you wrote anyway. I know how time is thought... I had laundry piled high, so I did that. Took me way longer than one unpluggage hour!
ReplyDeleteKate- Knowing you, I bet you Wrote so many words! And I bet you know exactly how many...
