One final point of clarification. In a perfect world you will sign up for Speedbo and write every breathing moment for the next 31 days. The rest of us will be doing our own Speedbo that works for our lifestyle. Weekend warrior perhaps. Give up evening television for a month to write. Get a babysitter Saturday afternoons for a month so you can write. Get up one hour earlier for a month so you can write. Whatever you do, stretch yourself. Get out of your comfort zone.  

Every time you start to cave, remind yourself, 
it's only for a month. 

YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR ONE MONTH.

So sign up, comment... and to get the inspiration flowing, post your favorite quote on the topic of inspiration, encouragement, determination, and success. Please put your quote in caps so we don't miss it in the comments.


Oh, and did we mention that every single Speedbo Hall of Fame writer will receive a Seekerville Speedbo Certificate of Achievement in the mail?  Almost as exciting as a pink Seekerville pen!


That's it!

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!
