What is the Write Every Day challenge?
Write Every Day is just what its name says: We challenge each other to write, every single day. Our goal is to encourage each other and to provide the accountability and/or motivation that some of us find very useful in keeping the words flowing. However, there's no obligation and no pressure, and if writing didn't happen for you on any given day, there won't be any judgement, just support and sympathy!

Who can participate?
Everyone is welcome! We’re an open-minded, nonjudgmental group of people who enjoy writing.

What do I have to do?
We’ll post each day with a little bit about our writing and a running tally of participants. All you need to do is drop by the comments on the most recent tally entry to let us know how you’re doing. Please know that you are never obligated to check in. Also, if you'd like to comment on someone else's comment but aren't checking in for yourself, that's perfectly fine too. We're really easygoing 'round here, and conversation is absolutely encouraged.

Is there a word limit or quota?
Nope. Write as little as an “alibi” sentence (just what it sounds like—a sentence you write to say you’ve written, an alibi for the day, as it were) or as much as you’d like. All word counts are welcome!

Is there any restriction on the kind of writing I can do?
Absolutely not! Fanfiction, original fiction, screenplays, blog posts, meta, academic writing, morning pages, reviews, editing, letter-writing, nonsense poems, bucket list: if it feels like writing to you, it counts!

Do I have to participate all the time?
No way! You can come and go at your pleasure.

New to WED? Got any questions?
Please don’t hesitate to contact ysilme or sylvanwitch in the comments or via PM at our individual journals, or comment here. We’re here to help!

Starting 2020, we're also posting two reccing posts during the month, one to rec the fanworks you created or updated during the month, and one to rec your favourites (fannish places, groups, communities, media, stories - you name it) online. The entries are tagged with the fandoms etc., and we like to invite you to also check the older entries for recs and interesting places. As of 2022 we've also added WED Resources which consists at the moment of a great list for naming resources. You'll find easy links to all these in the link list of the journal on the top right.
