For the next month, we will be taking suggestions of funny quotes, quirks, items, and scenes from all of our Nanowrimo participants.

Once November arrives, we'll compile the list and YOU can choose from our dares/challenges to add to your novel. Perfect for those days you're stuck for inspiration or when you're just a bit short on your word count. Or even if you're going for as silly as possible.

Ern'sDares:
*One of your characters uses a food word as an exclamation (ie "Oh, PINEAPPLE!")
*Someone always ends every sentence as a question?
*Include the word "defenestration" somewhere in your novel (the act of throwing someone or something out the window. Feel smarter now?)
*Include the quote, "But I don't even LIKE purple."

Okay, to keep everyone moving and motivated, I'm going to issue you your first 15 minute word war challenge!

Here's how it works (with a twist): sometime in the next 24 hours, I challenge you to write continuously for 15 minutes. No stopping, no editting, no fussing over details. Just crank out words and don't stop for 15 minutes.

When you're done, come back here and post your word count from that 15 minutes. And then lather-rinse-repeat. Do it as many times as possible... try to beat ME, try to beat yourself. You have plenty of time, so let's give this a go.



Ern's Best :15 - 777
Other :15 - 651; 560

Word war

Best so far: 643

(if I could only get everyone in the house to not come talk to me while I'm writing? yeah, that would be good.)

Word War:
