Go for it! It’s the first day of the Fast Draft September Challenge on Verla Kay’s Blue Boards. Here’s my report:

My goal for the month is 30k from scratch. Today, I wrote 1050/30,000.

I am writing 2-3 pages of my SFD (sloppy first draft) every single day this month. My daily progress will be posted on the Blue Boards. If I’m feeling especially motivated, I might do a sketch or two related to the story. I’m working on a middle-grade novel.
