Get your pencils ready, find your favorite notebooks and pens, and wiggle those typing fingers to get them limbered up. The war is upon us!
1 ! The war begins as of Midnight, the START of Saturday, March 15th according to your local time. If I've calculated correctly, this post should be up in plenty of time that even the time travelers on the other side of the world will be able to start at the beginning of their own day!
2 ! The war ends as of Midnight, the END of Monday, March 17th according to your local time. You will have THREE AWESOME DAYS of writing.
3 ! To participate, please check-in with a comment below. You may also post your beginning word counts in order to help you keep track of your progress. All members of

hd_writers are welcome to participate! Invite your friends to join in!4 ! Use this time to work on your writing - any project, any pairing, any fandom! You do not have to be writing Harry/Draco fic in order to participate. Any and all creative writing counts!
5 ! The hd_writers chatroom is there as always to serve as inspiration and encouragement, as well as the SrsBzns chatroom. Please try to stay on the topic of writing as much as possible during the word war! The SrsBzns room should be focused strictly on timed word wars without the additional chat. For inspiration, writing talk, encouragement, etc. please visit the main room.
6 ! You don't have to participate the entire weekend, just jump in whenever you can and do any amount of writing in order to qualify.
7 ! Remember to check back in with your final, ending word count within approximately 24 hours after the war ends! (We would appreciate if you could check back in with your final word count by the end of your day on Tuesday, March 18th).
8 ! ALL WORDS ARE AWESOME WORDS! Good luck everyone!

Projects To Be Worked On: A Teen Wolf fic I've been playing with in my mind since forever, a fusion with Under the Dome. Only more supernatural-y.

Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, etc.)? EVERYONE TELL ME IT'S OK TO A SUCKY FIRST DRAFT. Like, this is legit my weakness because I always think my first draft needs to be perfect but a first draft really just needs to exist and that's all sooooo....I don't need to have everything worked out in round 1. I just need to have words.
