Alright, I did a sprint for 1:30, and got 1081 words in!
Fav line: (Heads up: My character is getting saved here. In the past, he named some of these “chains” and described what he imagined them looking like and stuff, so that’s what’s going on XD)
Those chains that wrapped so tightly around me? They began to shake. Arrogance? It shouted that I was better than that–that I didn’t need someone to save me. Anger? It told me I didn’t need this. Pride? It whispered fears of what people would think.
But it felt like every chain I had spent my lifetime naming was falling off.
And all those invisible voices that I’d been fighting for so long, but didn’t know how to stop?
For once, they were afraid.

April 21, 2021 at 1:56 pm #98259@writerlexi1216 Impressive wordcount yourself!! We totally need to do this again:D Also, I’m in love with those lines, by the way–they’re so atmospheric and ominous. (Please tell me everything will be okay. I’m scared.)
@issawriter7 WHOO!! That’s a lot of words–you go girl!!! (And thank you!!)
@scripter-of-kingdoms :O :O :O WOW, you hit 50k?! That’s amazing, girl!!!! *brings out the celebratory confetti and flings it with reckless abandon* Also, I realized that I never replied to your post where you shared your drawing, I’m so sorry!!! I was absolutely astonished by it–you’re such a good artist, Grace!!! (Seriously, by jaw was on the floor.)
@daisy-torres Wow, I love those lines!!! They’re so poignant. And great job with the wordcount!!“Seven seconds till the end. Time enough for you. Perhaps. But what will you do with it?”

April 21, 2021 at 5:26 pm #98275@writerlexi1216 Ehehehe, I know that feeling all too well:P Which Shakespeare are you reading? Also nO BE NICE TO YOUR CHARRIES AHHH
(Thanks!! It’s one of my favorite Phineas and Ferb moments–I just couldn’t resist making it my profile pic.:P)
“Seven seconds till the end. Time enough for you. Perhaps. But what will you do with it?”
April 21, 2021 at 5:50 pm #98276Of course, and YES, definitely!! I usually do a sprint with @scripter-of-kingdoms every night from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern Time, so if that works with you, you could join us!! <3333333
April 21, 2021 at 5:51 pm #98277Hehe, yet here I am still procrastinating ;-; Oh well, writing is more enjoyable. I’m reading a play he wrote called Julius Caesar. It’s… it’s about Julius Caesar, if you couldn’t tell by the title, and it’s very archaic so it’s no simple read. EEEEEK, all right, I’ll try to have mercy on them… *Caira glares at me doubtfully, arms crossed*
Oooh, AWESOME!! Gosh, that’s such a great show. Was there a platypus controlling you to make that your profile pic?
… I’m sorry, I had to.
April 21, 2021 at 8:06 pm #98279Girl, I am SO SORRY I haven’t responded to your post!! Anyways, yes, that’s going to be such a huge relief, I’m sure!!:) Oh, congrats!! Yes, finishing schoolwork is definitely one of the greatest feelings EVER!! Oh, and I think <3 is supposed to look like a heart 🙂 I usually just put a lot of 3’s though.
