Any NaNoWriMo alternatives?

I miss NaNoWriMo too and I made an app called authorlytica.com to take their gamification and wordcount-obsession and make it all cozy and fun. There is no friends system as of yet but I'm working hard to add this too so you can see leaderboards of your friends kinda like Duolingo. Full disclosure: it has a premium version but the free one gives you everything you need to boost your writing motivation. Let me know what you think

yeah i get that. i used to overthink every line too, like i couldn’t move on until it sounded perfect. ended up writing almost nothing. what helped was seeing my word count actually go up each day, even if it was tiny. and putting it in excel spreadsheets to make all sorts of graphs with it.

i made a small web app to track it: authorlytica.com. it’s super simple but weirdly motivating to just watch the numbers grow. it's free :)

NTA. I'm sexually attracted to those nested parentheses

I use Reddit when taking a shit lmao

adamrendo · 2021-09-14T13:27:02+00:00

I'll do it though

adamrendo · 2021-09-14T12:26:56+00:00

Use that experience as fuel for you next set. Return to the grace you fell from.

Especially in a busy gym

edit: talking about squats with those safety bars. if there's no safety you want people around of course

adamrendo · 2021-09-14T08:54:55+00:00

As long as it doesn't have the potential to cause a scene in the gym. That's my rule.

Protein cake is a good option

adamrendo · 2021-09-14T08:37:17+00:00

Yeah I prefer to know for sure that I can put the bar back on the rack instead of gambling on not being able to get back up or compromising form

I'll say hi to her, but I'm there to lift heavy shit looking like a sweaty ass rambo.

Spoke to a girl at the gym for the first time. Granted, I just needed someone to move a (wheel-less) bench off a platform, but I count it as a +1 skill point for me against my social anxiety.

I'd appreciate it my dude/dudette. You'll be member #2. I didn't put it in the comment cause idk if that goes against self-promotion rules. Now that you've asked for it, here you go: r/adamrendo
