SUNDAY CHECK-IN!!

[tryslora]

Sunday's done already? Where did the weekend go? Don't worry, the weekend may be done, but 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?

Total Words So Far: 6,856
Projects Worked On: Chapter 22 + new fic
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!!! Against all odds, because yesterday had been a really shitty day, I managed to finish chapter 22 of The Greyest Eyes! And I've just realised reading this post that the word war ends tomorrow and not tonight! So will work on the epilogue now...
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? Yes, thank you for those word wars, because, they really make me write more... I mean, they kind of force me to write, and then once I've managed to get myself to write, everything flows! (don't know if I make much sense, sorry!) So thank you again! :)

If You Set Other Goals, Are You Progressing? Kind of? I abandoned the story I wanted to write because it wasn't working and started a new one - and this one's flowing much better.
Anything To Share? YAY WRITING! ;)

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? They finally shagged!
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? I think I'm going to finish soon. There's one more (longish) scene. But tomorrow is a big Shopping Day, so I may not write at all again until Tuesday. It's due Wednesday. I'm freaking out a little bit, even though everything points to this being done on time. Thanks for the encouragement!!!!

Wow! Your goal was 4k and you managed over 19k! Bravo! :D

[lq-traintracks.livejournal.com]

Oh no! I had written 14k up to this war. My goal was 4 more (18k). I'm now at 19,250. :-D I'm sorry for the confusion. I probably wrote that out wrong. ;-p

Excellent! You've managed to smash through your goal! And i'm really glad they help, because that's the whole idea. Just let your mind relax and GO. :)

Woohoo, yay for so many words and yay for having more time!

Yay for finding the story that works for you!

You've made words, though, which is excellent!

I had hoped the end would be at 20,000 words. Gah...I can't end it! *bangs head* I have until Wed to truly finish it. Thank goodness.
