April Book in a Week April's Book in a Week challenge had 9 participants, more or less, and the group came up with 204 new pages. Our winner was Laura Webb, who said that because of BiaW, "I was able to break loose on a story that had been stalled for a few
months..." Taking advantage of Spring Break, she produced 88 new pages!
