FRIDAY CHECK-IN!!

[tryslora]

Friday's gone already? Where did the time go? Don't worry, 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?

It's only 9.30 but I think I need to catch up on some sleep, so I'll post this now. If I decide to write more, I'll count it with tomorrows words.

Projects Worked On: New HD fic + original story
If You Set Other Goals Are You Progressing? I dropped the HD fic, and started working on some original stuff and it was so much easier. I think the HD story needs to stay inside my head for. A while longer. I'm okay with that. I'm having so much fun doing research for the original story. I know more about edible plants in the norwegian mountains now, than I ever thought I'd need.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? I need to write 4.4 k tomorrow! Eeep!

[tryslora]

Sometimes stories need to get simmered on the backburner for a bit before they're ready to be written; sounds like you've got one!

You can get that 4.4k. Just settle in and do one 30 minute sprint at a time. You can do it!

No extra words today. Beta'd for a friend. :-)

Go, everybody else!!! \o/ Here's a hot icon for your inspiration!

[witchyemerald.livejournal.com]

Inspiration or distraction?

Either way hot damn!

Happy to help (or not).

[tryslora]

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? One of my characters had a wonderful rock-bottom moment, that I've been pushing hi towards for the last few days. Glad he finally got there :) Now I can make things even worse for him in a storm of angst. :P
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? I thnk I'm going to make goal for once. Let's hope! One more day!

[tryslora]

You've done so well! Hope Saturday has gone well for you as well.

If You Set Other Goals, Are You Progressing? Yeah, I have a few more scenes to go through. I might go over that current goal (but maybe not for this challenge).
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? I might not make the goal but I'm feeling good about the story. I wish I could share a snippets! Maybe something for another story.

[tryslora]

Go you!! And your lack of snippets is a tease. Can't wait to see the finished product!

Projects Worked On: just over 1k on smooch and finished up a chapter in my TW 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? Yes! The fact that I've managed over 1k on smooch each of the last two days is GOOD. I think I'm finally getting breakthrough there. *fingers crossed*

“Do this.” Lydia places the paper in Stiles’s lap and he tries to make sense of the pattern he sees there.

“You don’t even know what the wards look like,” he protests.

“No, but I know what does make a strong network of intertwined lines with a mathematically stable root, and that is it.” She jabs the paper with one red nail. “Therefore, that is what you need to do.”
