Hello!
So at Monday's meeting we talked about some ways to improve your writing quantity and quality by putting some work out online. A good tool for this is, believe it or not, Twitter! Twitter has multiple hashtags that you can put at the end of a tweet and your post will show up with a bunch of other tweets. Some hashtags you could use are:
#amwriting
#writerslife
#WriteWednesday or #onelineWednesday
#WriteTip
#Wordcount
#Fridayreads
#writingPrompt
#askagent
*This is just a rough list of hashtags you could use, there are thousands of hashtags out in the world.*
Another useful tip we talked about was using a grid. If your writing a long term project( I.E a novel, book, etc.) create a grid with the word count. Books don't depend on the page number, it's all about word count. So, with that in mind, create a grid with the word count, the chapters with the least amount of words could use some expanding on. I know I'm certainly going to try that!
Now for the fun part...on Monday we used a fun prompt(below) and it was really kinda cool the ways people went with it.
Along with that, we assigned a prompt for next weeks meeting as well!
We hope to see you next week!
