The Great Writing Challenge

So the gauntlet is down. Up to page 2! After 2 re-writes, I think I've culled my opening section and am under way on the Challenge of the Year: A mate and I are attempting writing a novel each - any subject - any genre - by year's end! If we can knock out 2-3 pages a day, we should have something substantial by year's end. It seems the perfect creative outlet for both of us and I am giving up on the one man play I've been letting gather digital dust on my desktop (Sorry Mike, it'll have to wait until after graduation). So if anyone else out there wants to try this madness, filling your weekends foolishly slaving over a hot keyboard, take a run at it with us.
