I decided to do some practice for my book by spending exactly an hour every day writing one scene. Basically, every day I think up something random and figure out a way to include all the major aspects of a fight. Stakes, payoff, all of it.

Because I’m trying to do all of it in an hour, there is extremely limited wordcount to fit the whole scene into it. The average wordcount is between 500 to 1k so I have to hit every story beat in a pretty short span of time. It turns out that this challenge is really good for getting good at writing stories.

I decided to put these up on RR to help make myself actually follow through with this daily challenge. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to read it because it is just unedited practice but we’ll see if I can continue this.
