SATURDAY CHECK-IN!!

[tryslora]

Saturday's done already? Where did the time go? Don't worry, the weekend may be half done, but there's still one more day left in our word war! Why don't you check in and let us know how you're doing? Intermediary check-ins are completely optional, but if you want some extra encouragement come and tell us how you are doing and encourage your fellow writers also!

Remember you can always find encouragement here, in the chatroom or in Serious Business Writing Room.

It's not too late to join in the war! Just check in at the original post right here.

So... how's it going so far?

If You Set Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever), Are You Progressing? nope~ but that's because I haven't worked on smooch yet. Idk if I will this weekend.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)?

This isn't particularly helpful to people, but I have all the feels for this show :D

[tryslora]

Woohoo!! You have nailed your goal! And hey, so it's not smooch, but you still got words made and got things done! SO GO YOU!!

Total Words So Far:2584 on smoochfic + 401 on ficlet ~ 3k
Projects Worked On: smoochfic and a silly ficlet in Pansy's pow.
If You Set Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever), Are You Progressing? I am! Smoochfic is practically finished, just needs some editing.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? apparently I can write smut, but only if I'm sleep deprived and have had a beer. I hope it still makes sense tomorrow.

[tryslora]

Ficlets are fun breaks, aren't they? I'm sure it will all make sense still tomorrow! Go you on almost finishing Smooch!

[ashindk.livejournal.com]

Ficlets are fun! I doubt that this one will ever be posted anywhere, but I had so much fun writing Pansy!

Smoochfic is practically finished, just needs some editing.

Go you!!!

Projects Worked On: horrorfest, wip
If You Set Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever), Are You Progressing? I sent my first horror fic off to betas, and have even edited in comments from one beta already. Plus cranked out two chapters of the WiP. Oh, and brainstormed a vaguely successful sounding idea for an original short.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? Here, have a future snippet from my TW WiP!!

It’s hard to turn away, but Stiles does, crossing the dead lawn to climb the stairs into the burnt shell. The smoke assaults his nose, even after all these years, but more than that, he feels the tug of the weave that lies around the house. He never noticed it before, not when he was younger, but now it draws him in, almost whispering his name.

Derek comes up beside him, and the stranglehold of threads eases; they cross the threshold together.

“You all right?” Derek’s hand falls to Stiles’s shoulder, squeezing slightly.

“Yeah. Fine.” He’s not, though. He’s not fine at all, and he has a feeling not fine is about to turn into bad fairly quickly. “Dude? Just do me a favor. Catch me when I hit the ground.”

Stiles throws open his senses, and he lets it all come in.

(If you're curious what this is part of, this is from chapter 14 of my WiP, which is being posted on AO3 here. I have to remember to post chapter 6 tomorrow morning!)

If You Set Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever), Are You Progressing? Well they're talking to each other and making plans I think that's good.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? Um I wrote something! I count that as a win. :)

[tryslora]

Writing something is always a win.
