KidlitWriMo is coming


KidlitWriMo is back — with a twist! In 2025, the goal was to write 30 minutes a day for 30 days. What I discovered, however, was that most of the participants only wrote on the weekdays, not seven days a week. So in 2026, we’re changing the math to 100 minutes a week in September.

There are 5 weeks in September: 2 long weeks and 3 short ones. Can you write 100 minutes a week in September? Will you take the challenge? If so, join our private KidLitWriMo Facebook Group.

The KidlitWriMo 100 Challenge begins on September 1st! See more here.
