How I did it: I put as little thought into what I was writing and just wrote until my brain was tired, which amazingly took a long time. I'd squeeze my thoughts out onto the screen, private thoughts, and felt relieved when done. I'm still doing this, it's just that it's easy for me to do 750 words. I'm aiming for 2000 words a day, as Stephen King is reputed to doing.

Lessons & tips:

1. Type anything that's on your mind.
2. Don't worry about spelling, grammar or comprehension. 
3. When you think you can't type anymore, go beyond that and just keep on typing. 
4. See what other badges you can earn on the 750words.com site.  

Resources: Any book on writing by Natalie Goldberg, your imagination and your thoughts. Also, http://750words.com
