I am trying this as well. Although my project is not 50k words, it’s a chance to get some major progress! More of a novella length, but we’ll see. Mine is a horror with spiritual mythology- a preta (hungry ghost from eastern theologies) is addicted to death so he can ride the wheel of life over and over for reincarnation. He eventually gets caught and sent to hell permanently, “branded” for eternity.

That sounds really intriguing! If you don't think you'll hit 50K that's fine - it's a useful goal for many people, myself included, as writing roughly 1700 words a day forces people to write beyond their comfort zone. But if your goal is a novella, that's totally cool! Good luck and let us know if you get stuck!

Thank you!!!! I am hoping it comes together!! The story has been bouncing around in my head for a few months, it’s ready to be written.
