For many of you, you’ve got a fun new adventure!
We are going to be tracking our progress this year – together – this is going to be best suited for those who are participating for the polish and editing portion of our challenge.
Everyday you’ll finish your story or wordcount and add it to the reporting sheet. At the end of the week, we’ll leave an announcement about our progress in the discord.
This will also be a challenge for the event coordinator, Catrina Taylor aka TheLadyWrites. She has committed to stream for 12 hours if we can report in 90 completed short stories.
Stories on Fire will be tracking progress this year!
To get started, sign up through this form. From there, you’ll get a link to the tracking form. That form will enable you to update your word count and your story count daily.
We’ll use this to track those who are continuing through the editing process with us this year. By signing up here, we will be able to pair everyone up and ensure everyone gets the support they need so we can all reach the goal of writing, polishing, and publishing!
