Please welcome the newest freewriter @plumandrain!! Visit, comment and vote on their posts. We all love that, right?
Many of you participated in the Day 100 We-Write and had tons of fun. But I believe nobody had as much fun as @snook. Not only did she trick @deaconlee (who had said that he was NOT going to do a WE-Write) into writing with her, she also created this fun video!! It is a must see!!
Get your popcorn ready and watch @snook 's masterpiece
Or better, get your dancing socks on and go for it!!

And @improv's input:
Two things I do a little differently. I just type "timer" into google and it pops up a 5-minute timer. I also type directly into steemit. I also rarely use a photo, don't I? So that's three things.
