This upcoming weekend, to be specific.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not entering the contest this year (maybe next year when I&#8217;ve a bit more time to prepare) but I am going to use it as inspiration to get some writing done.<\/p>\n<p>This year has been pretty bonkers and I haven&#8217;t spent any time at all writing anything new, not even for my paranormal circus <a href=\"http:\/\/www.corividae.com\/shiny\/erotica\/under-glass\/\">erotica under glass<\/a> project. It&#8217;s time to change that.<\/p>\n<p>My goals related to the paranormal circus erotica under glass for this year were:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Finish writing and editing the untitled novelette\/novella? about Ben and Maggie<\/li>\n<li>Write at least one more story in this series.\n<ul>\n<li>Preferably two\u00a0&#x1f609;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Write and share a holiday-themed story set in this series<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So those are my goals for the 3-Day Novel Contest.<\/p>\n<p>Because I also like word count goals I&#8217;m also aiming for 25,000 words over the three days.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to spend some time tomorrow re-acquainting myself with Ben and Maggie and the world they live in, and then I&#8217;ll dive in. I will attempt to post updates on Twitter and Facebook using the hashtag #3DaysUnderGlass but if I need to chose between writing and tweeting writing is going to win.<\/p>\n<p>Wish me luck!<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and send prompts (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.corividae.com\/shiny\/erotica\/under-glass\/2017-paranormal-circus\/\">details<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-973\" src=\"http:\/\/www.corividae.com\/shiny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Paranormal-300x251.jpg\" alt=\"Paranormal Circus\" width=\"300\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.corividae.com\/shiny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Paranormal-300x251.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.corividae.com\/shiny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Paranormal-768x644.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.corividae.com\/shiny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Paranormal.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 3-Day Novel Contest is exactly what it sounds like.
