Oops! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Should have been 15 min but I gave us 20. 😬 Hope it worked in your favor!

Got a FSW or WC to share?

My FSW: “We taught each other to belch and snap our gum.” 😂

Take a quick stretch break and come back at 12:45 for our final 15-minute run. #wordsprints #NaNo2.0 #NaNoWriMo

I’m here today to get caught up - I’m behind, but it's not insurmountable. My memoir for my baby granddaughter is coming along, but w/o wordsprints I don’t think I’d get it done. 🏃🏻 What are you working on today?

Also - I came dressed for the occasion because today is a day to WRITE. 📝 #NaNoWriMo
November 24, 2025 at 7:49 PM
Both of you can do it!

I host #wordsprints weeknights 5-7pm Pacific and noon to 2pm Pacific on weekends.

I'm here to the end and SO INSPIRED by you guys!

You're the reason I became an ML and the reason I joined @nano2point0.bsky.social. ♥️❣️♥️❣️
