Now Zeronauts, Scamperers, Word Warriors, and Outlaws…
GO WRITE!
UPDATE: The single biggest key to a successful ZD30 Challenge is daily scampers (this is what Zeronauts do instead of writing sprints). A good reminder today from Brian Reeves over in the Facebook group:
Like we say: “A scamper a day puts FADE OUT in play!” For that bit of inspiration, today’s recipient of the Trumbo Award is Brian Reeves!
Onward!
