...day one, we are deep in the trenches, and spirits are still good...

Somewhere in the world, Friday is over and Saturday has begun! That means for all of you who have said goodbye to Friday, the first 24 hours are done and it's time to check in! You still have three more days to go, so don't worry if you're off to a slow start. You have plenty of time to kick it into high gear!
The mid-war check-ins are completely optional, but if you want some extra encouragement from your fellow writers, come tell us how you are doing! And while you're there, see how everyone else is doing and maybe leave them some kind words (or butt-kicking where requested!).
Remember you can always find encouragement here, in the chatroom or in Serious Business Writing Room.
It's not too late to join in either. Just check in at the original post here.
