Hello Freewriters!

Welcome to a VERY belated of Week 2 AND 3 of NaNoWriMo encouragement post. And while I've had trouble getting anything done (IRL or on Steem) our brave freewriters are well on their way to writing 50,000 words in the month of November. In fact, one of them already finished!

Congrats to @deeanndmathews for pounding out over 50,000 words in less than a month.
@wakeupkitty is cranking too! Way to go! I think her comment said she'd finished her story too.

The FreeWriteHouse is here to support everyone slogging through daily word counts with upvotes, comments, and a little SBI incentive to keep writing.

As of today, Friday November 22 these are the writers we know are participating:

Steem NameNaNo Name
@felt.buzzFeltBuzzWrites
@deeanndmathewsdeeanndmathews
@mariannewestLiz M. Brown
@kaelcikaelci
@wakeupkittywakeupkitty

Week 2 & 3 prizes

On the last update post, @mariannewest, @kaelci, @deeanndmathews, and @wakeupkitty put links in the comments to their posts for us all to go cheer them on. They're all eligible for the SBI rewards this week. Since there are four and I promised 10 SBI, I'm upping it to 12 so each get three SBI shares. Keep writing and sharing! You can do it.

You can find out more about National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo, on their website here.

For those who aren't taking on the challenge this year, please swing by and offer your support to your fellow writers!

The Good Stuff Revisited

How to get rewards for participating in NaNoWriMo:

Once a week I'll post a NaNoWriMo update post on the FreeWriteHouse account. Normally it will be at the beginning of the writing week, but I'm getting a slow start this week. So this means today and on the 8, 15, 19, 22. I'll add a final one on the last day of November for everyone to comment on their final progress or links to your latest posts about it on Steem. You'll recognize it by the snazzy thumbnail image I made. 😆

All you need to do is Post links to your updates in the comments of the weekly post for as long as you are still participating in the challenge.

Easy right? You're already doing so much, I don't want to burden you with more.

Every NaNoWriMo writer that posts at least one update during the week will get upvotes and be eligible for the SBI shares being given away each week. If you post more updates you might get more upvotes, it all depends on resources.

Here's how that part works: I'll be giving away a minimum of 10 SBI shares each week. I'll up the amount so that everyone gets an equal share - BUT your post must show you are participating in the challenge. How you do that is up to you.

Any questions? Ask in the comments!

Congratulations!! I think you are the only one who lasted this time around. Well done!

@freewritehouse Thank you but I thought there already are who had the 50k a few days ago? Happy day. ❤️

there probably are some - but not from our little freewriters group

@freewritehouse but I thought you wrote @deeanndmathews already wrote the 50k. 🤔 I keep writing, probably in December too. Some things came in between like hospital and my health but I finish this story. ❤️

and I saw an update from @deeanndmathews - she is in over 50,000 as well!!! You two rock!!

@freewritehouse Yes, that is what I meant. She will publish in no time. I probably never will. 👍💕

I posted NaNoWriMo 21 - Oh, happy day

Happy Sunday to all of you. 💕

@freewritehouse, When everything looks stagnant, few brave people continue their passion no matter what, so i want to appreciate all these Content Creators.

Keep up team and keep encouraging more content creators. Stay blessed.

Thank you so much for your kind response. Stay blessed.

@chireerocks You are welcome. Sorry for the delay. My connection let's me down. I wish you a great weekend. 💕

No problem. Thank you so much and enjoy your time ahead.

@chireerocks Thank you, you too. 💕

Welcome and thank you. 🙂

Oh no, I did not finish my story yet and only have 47K words.
If I want my tale to have 50k I need to write 3125 words daily in the next 7 days.

Congrats @deeanndmathews 👍

I must have misunderstood your comment. I thought it said your story was done but you were at about 40k words. You're so close though! You can do it!

@ntowl I am at 47k words now so today I finished the 50k. Perhaps I did earlier. I know at certain posts I did not always count all words written only those I will use for my story.
That was a weird thing too. I not intended to write a story and somehow it started by freewriting and I will finish it. For my story I need 21,875 more words. If I wrote them at the end of this month I wrote at least 68k.

Happy Sunday ❤️

Thank you so much!!! It is so sweet of you that you are doing this!!
