MONDAY CHECK-IN!!

[tryslora]

Monday'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?

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 hoped to get my fic finished and I did, yay!!! I sent it to my beta today so I reached my goal!
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? A Word War is really inspiring for me, I have always been able to write much more when I'm participating it. Thank you all! <3

[tryslora]

You may not have been perfectly consistent, but you've still been very consistent, and that's what it takes to get done, so I think you've met goal still.

Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)?
So a friend was posting she needed to work on a fest she was doing but couldn't get herself to do it, So challenged her to a 24 hour war, who ever writes the most words gets a drabble or beta work done from the other.

Got 8 hours to go!

[tryslora]

Woohoo! Write all the words! And good luck with Heat Wave... mine is now officially killing me.

Total Word War Goal: 10k
New Words Written: 2048

Projects Worked On: WiP and Heat Wave
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, I failed on outlining Heat Wave, decided to just start writing it instead, and am now afraid it wants to be 20k. I see a push for 2k for the next two weeks...
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? This is the only snippet I can find from the chapter I just wrote in the WiP that won't be a major spoiler.

Oh. Crap. With everything else, Stiles forgot that it’s the full moon today. This is the day he came here for, the day that will end with Molly’s first transformation, and now there’s this. He had everything planned out and nothing’s working. This was all supposed to be so simple, and instead he’s caused trouble for everyone.
