Hello again! This is your really late monthly check-in-- how did you do with March's pledge? Check back in over there and you receive a surprise banner!

(Even if you didn't reach your goal, as long as you wrote words, check in anyway!)

Let's do this again for April, yes? Thankfully with word wars and Camp Nano I'm sure we can all write a weeeee bit more than we did last month, too. ;)

We all say we want to write, but sometimes we just... never get around to it. It's not an uncommon problem, but maybe this can help. Sometimes the declaration of intent, of publicly saying "This month, I will write this number of words" is enough to kick our arses in gear, so why don't we hold ourselves accountable to each other?

Let's:
a) declare the number of words we want to write for the month (check in with a current total word count of all your projects if you have a few ongoing ones)
b) write, write, write!
c) check back in at the end -- there are banners in store for those who reach their goal!

No word count is too big or too small. Start with something you think you can manage. And don't worry if you don't reach it, either! All words are great words--the important thing is getting in the habit of setting a goal.

Good luck!

15k. The same as my nano pledge. :)

I'm trying to work on my poor, long forgotten WiPs.

I am pledging 35k again, which is what I pledged for Camp NaNo. I need to write more, but it's a crazy as f--- month and I'm going to be lucky to get that, I think!

Just over 37k, so I eeked it out. Somehow. A large push in the last week got me there!

April goal: 20k.

Ah, I think 20k. More would be lovely, but doing 20k after months of nothing would be amazing.

I wrote around 3k so I was a couple short of my goal ;__;

I want to try and write 5k this month though.

Oh my gosh, this comm rocks so hard XD

I'm planning on finishing my first ever multi-parter this month, and hopefully joining a few fests so I'm going to try for 15,000 words!

Well, I didn't finish my multi-parter but I did make it past 20k because of the 'omg fest fics must be finished!' panic I had at the end of the month haha. So yay~
