If you want a daily wordcount challenge with leeway, consider doing the Inkygirl Wordcount Challenge For Writers.

Inspired by this post by @moonrat:

Tip for writers: try VERY HARD to let go of the fear of failure; it doesn’t gain you anything.

Excellent advice! I’m going to do my best to take this to heart.

From ALA’s page about Banned Books Week:

Banned Books Week (BBW) is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. Held during the last week of September, Banned Books Week highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the harms of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted bannings of books across the United States.

And you can read Manifesto by Ellen Hopkins here.

Speaking of Twitter, I’m “inkyelbows.” And to you writers out there, consider taking my 1000 Words A Day or 500 Words A Day challenge!

Too often, I find that writers start motivational challenges like NaNoWrimo with enthusiasm and good intentions, but give up when they start missing their daily targets for more than a few days in a row…undermining their confidence and defeating the purpose of the original challenge.

I also wanted a challenge that lasted the whole year rather than just a month.

I’m still gradually moving over the WWFC archived cartoons, so please don’t panic if you find a blank entry in the archives. Hoping to get them all moved over soon!

Hey all — I’ve finished revamping the layout, but now I have to move over all the strips. I’ll be doing this gradually, so please don’t freak out if you click on a strip in the archives and it’s blank — I’ll get there eventually.
