WRITE-A-THON
June 23rd thru August 3rd, I am participating in The Clarion Foundation’s Write-a-Thon to help raise funds, with a goal of writing 40,000 words in that short span of time. I am looking for volunteers to back me, whether that’s by a flat donation or on a per-word basis (note that $0.01 per word would be $450 if I make my goal).
A dollar, two, twenty, or, if you’re willing, a per-word rate. It all adds up!
What will I be writing? My goal is to finish Seen In Distant Stars, a dark and dystopian science fiction thriller. I have about 40,000 words to go on this novel, so the Write-a-Thon will push me to finish, and also help raise money for a good cause while doing so.
Kim Stanley Robinson and many others are participating, and if you’re a writer, I highly encourage you to participate as well. Maybe we can even team-up! Many of my mentors have gone through Clarion to improve their craft, and many recent writing peers.
Simply click “Support Writers,” then my name, Michael Bailey (<= or this direct link, to make things even easier), and then the “Donate” button.
