last day to sign up for mini_wrimo 2023

via vriddy , today i learned about mini_wrimo , a spin-off of nanowrimo where you can set your own goals for daily word counts, as low as 100. given that today is the last day for signups, i hopped on board, even if i'm not confident i'll remember to write every single day. i've managed to pass on nano so far this november (after having failed who knows how many years), although uncharacteristically, i did outline a story idea i've had kicking around my head for ages, which i'll probably focus on for mini-wrimo.

the project is a realistic fantasy/romance focusing on a king who is deposed and his escape to safety, struggle to regain the throne, and discovery of love along the way. (i read a lot of romance novels, it was basically inevitable that i would try to write one.) i doubt i'll get very far into writing it, and maybe it even needs to be a series rather than a single book, but we'll see. i don't really have any goals other than trying to hit my 100 words every day.

i've seen that some people post their daily writing to their journals, and i won't be doing that, lol. i haven't even given anything proper names yet, so there's a lot of [She] and [Name This] littering my draft. plus, i just don't have the confidence that my prose is any good.

anyway, if someone manages to read this in the next few hours, there's still time to sign up, if you want.
