Hi all, great to see you back in the writing nook! Welcome to SPRINT WARS! I *love* writing sprints, but there are so many different kinds to choose from I sometimes spend more time deciding than writing. So I thought there's no better way to settle which is the BEST type of word sprint than by putting them all to the test! Come along on this writing experiment / challenge vlog to find the champion of all writing sprints (for me, at least).
May the best word sprint win!

How do you like to write best? What’s your favorite style of writing sprint? Do you think there’s anything else I should have tried, or do you have any special writing hacks to help you get in the zone? Plus, anyone else get CRAZY distracted by live-chats in write-ins 😂

Hi! I’m Danica, and I’ll be posting content about my writing/reading/living and documenting my journey as a writer on this authortube / writertube / creatortube channel. Look for noveling vlogs, reading/writing challenges, learn-with-me investigations into story craft, and book reviews.
