I, (YOUR NAME HERE), do hereby promise to work for at least one hour a day, five days a week, on a novel of my own creation. I will work towards the completion of said novel by October 1st, 2012. I understand that a fee of at least 10,000 gift points is required and that it will be returned to me incrementally as I move forward in my novel. I understand that not completing assignments will forfeit part of the entry fee, but that in the end I will have doubled my gift points should I have completed all assignments on time.

I am fully aware that this is a project that only I can complete. No one else is going to write my novel for me. I promise to work hard on this project, above and beyond the bare minimums that are set in the assignments in an attempt to make this the best novel I can.

I hereby swear to these things and promise to work as hard as I am able towards the goal of a finished novel in the year 2012,
(YOUR NAME HERE)
