SUNDAY CHECK-IN!!

[tryslora]

Have you reached the end of Sunday in your time zone? Then it's time to check in! The weekend may be over, but we're only halfway through the war, which means you still have loads of time to write! 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? Yes! I did, actually. I got the story moving in the right direction. Unfortunately the tone is all over the place, going from slightly cracky in one scene to angsty in the next one. I'll have to go back and fix that.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)?

That's definitely something that can be smoothed out in the editing phase. Congratulations on getting it moving in the right direction!

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? draft complete! woohoo!
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? Here, have a snippet from a TW fic...

“We’re going to be fine, Jackson.” Lydia puts her hands on his shoulders, turning him and pushing him towards the door. “It isn’t as if I haven’t sat for Toby before. Your mother and I are both very used to caring for your child and you need a night off before you explode.”

“It’s just…” Jackson fails to find words, rubbing at his eyes. “I’ve been up for something like thirty-six hours straight for the second time this week, and I don’t even know what Derek has planned tonight. All I want to do is sleep for a week.”

“Then we’ll keep Toby for a week.” Lydia tilts her head, smiling prettily. “I’m here to help your mother, and Toby will be fine until you come to get him. Now go. Do not keep Derek waiting. Do not drive again after this until you have slept.” She waves her fingers at the Porsche. “Go fuck your boyfriend, if you can stay awake long enough.”

“Lydia!”

She blinks. “What? In the past year I’ve learned that a judicious application of the F word helps certain appearances. I like it. Besides, it’s fun to shock you.” She pushes him out the door, and Jackson really doesn’t have the energy to care.

If You Set Other Goals, Are You Progressing? Worked on that the previous day; not so much for this day.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? I really wanted to write more today, but reality popped out of nowhere and surprised me. Oh well, there's always tomorrow. :D

[tryslora]

Reality does that sometimes. :( Hope you can find more time to write on Monday!
