Episode Notes

Try the Weekend Double Up Challenge.

Today, writer, let's play a writing game called the "Weekend Double Up Challenge"

We're headed into another weekend. This is a perfect time to try to boost your word count up there, as this next week might be a little shorter and unpredictable due to the upcoming holiday.

The Double Up Challenge

Calculate your daily word count goal and double it

Do three sprints with the following prompts.

Memories - Every show has that character building episode where the characters sit around and reminisce about the old days. Try a scene where each character is rehashing a version of past events that somewhat contradict another character's version of events. That will make for some interesting character-driven moments and it may help your MC figure out what motivates others by being able to see them in a new light.

Double double. Have your characters double back and return to a place they've been to before. What would they do differently having the knowledge and info at this point in your story that they didn't have previously?
