Hello One and All,

Just a little reminder:

Keep up to date from HQ by reading the "Breaking News" on the Dashboard.

ONE MORE WEEK!!!!

Had to be said *grin*

Hi Faithful Luxembourg Wordsmiths!,

Don't forget to consult the Dashboard for peptalks and videos!
I guarantee there is inspiration and grins to be garnered!

Keep up the words!

Your ML, who cheers you all on:)

I've just found out about the Dare Generator on the YWP website in this week's peptalk. I advise you too to use it - I love dares!

I've been dared to write a scene with these 5 words : liver, stepmother, vortex, spasm, grotesque.

Which reminds me : we could have set up a dare for the Luxembourg region. We used to do that in Northern Ireland - first year I took part in, we had to include a pumpkin and the next year it was a ninja, a pirate, a robot and a monkey (yep! All of four of them and I managed to have them all in one scene). In France, they have Gatorism - which consists in including an alligator in your Na-Novel (all explained here for those who can read french).

Hmm that might be a cool idea! The dares I mean. Read about that page on the pep-talk as well but haven't had the time yet to actually have a look at it, but sounds like I really should! :-)

The other idea I wanted to suggest was word wars at the next write-in. It helps sometimes, especially when you have people writing approximately the same amount of words per minute, to speed each other up and get that word count up in no time at all.
