750 Words - Get Into the Habit of Writing

I played with this along with the mystery character generator today, and I was pretty happy with the results.

750Words.com encourages you to write at least 750 words every day, and gives you the space to do it in private, where you don't have to worry about anyone reading it.  It awards you points: 1 if you write; 2 if you write more than 750 words.  Once you're done, the real magic starts.  You can view your stats, which give you rather humdrum run-of-the-mill things


How's the weather, anyway?  And your writing? How hot is IT?  How are you feeling?  And what are you talking about?

This is one of the parts I found completely intriguing.  I'm looking forward to writing again tomorrow so that I can see how much change there is in these graphs.
And to wrap it all up, a word cloud.  Very cool!

  3. Hi, Kathleen,

    Though I'm unable to participate right now, I have to thank you for all the great things you are showing us in the WVU Inspiration group.

    This one looks particularly helpful - and it's one I shall use when I resume writing.

    Thanks again - regards, wishes and vibes,
    Grumps. ;-)
