Hello and welcome once again to the Marathon!
You will need the following things:
- Nine hours, or thereabouts. They do not have to be consecutive but it’s written assuming you will start at 10am/pm (whichever works best for you) and go through to 6-7am/pm
- Water (or your beverage of choice, and lots of it)
- Food (plan ahead. There will be a lunch break at 1pm, but an hour is less time than you think to make and eat food!)
- This spreadsheet to track your word count, and figure out your Ending
- Semi-functioning arms/hands/wrists/shoulders (functioning brain possible required, but optional)
- Sprinto in the #word-wars channel of the Brighton WriMos Discord, or an app with a timer. Or an alarm clock, if you like to go old-school.
- An hour of the most Epic Music that you can find which fits your novel’s theme or *~vibes~* (or that just inspires you to write faster!). Examples will be provided, but you are encouraged to choose your own! Search ‘epic music hour’ on Youtube.
- A vague idea of what to write (not provided, very much Bring Your Own. Sorry.)
Here’s the Masterlist of challenges for you to work through! They should open in their own tab.
