IT'S OVER! PENCIL'S DOWN!!
Apr. 4th, 2014 01:00 pm
We're done! Friday is here, and if you've reached the end of the day, then the war is over. I hope you've been super amazingly productive these last five days (and now, GO ENJOY THE WEEKEND! *grins*). Remember: ALL WORDS ARE AWESOME WORDS!!
Please remember to let us know how you did overall with a comment on this post sometime by the end of day Saturday. Thank you to everyone who came out to play! And remember... another word war is coming! So take a chance to catch your breath and get ready... because we'll be doing it all over again soon!

Date: 2014-04-04 06:26 pm (UTC)Total Word War Goal: Enough words to finish the fic I was writing
Total Words Written: 3,544 + 326
Projects Worked On: HD Smoochfest Media Remix, HP Creatures
Did you Finish a Thing?: Yes!!! :D
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), Did You Meet Them? Yes, I finished the fic just as I'd planned, and also started writing a new one.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? It seems that I really need Word War to get things done. Thank you all! <3

Projects Worked On: Hobbit Big Bang, Horror Fest and RarePair Fest were the biggies, but there were also drabbles/challenges for HC Bingo, Fic Promptly, FemmeSlash100, and HD Writers
Did you Finish a Thing?: The only thing out of that lot that isn't finished is the one for RarePair Fest, though there is now a considerable amount of editing to do.
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), Did You Meet Them? I finally wrote that damned sex scene for RarePair and there's just one more scene to go so almost done there!
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I have been ridiculously prolific (for me) this week and it's been wonderful. Despite the ills (although, my voice has finally returned from the dead, so yay there too) it's been a brilliant chance for me to catch up on all the things. Drafts were submitted, my beta is giving me the side-eye because she now has things to do... It's been awesome. Can't wait until the next one!

Projects Worked On: smoochfest, random other fic
Did you Finish a Thing?: Yes!
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), Did You Meet Them? I wanted to write words. I wrote words. Other than being completely delusional about wordcount, my goal was absolutely reasonable. ALSO, that writers block that was starting to settle in? GONE. I'm itching to write all the things.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? It cost me two days of writing time to get my smoochfest fic plotted out, when I thought I could have had it done in just a few hours. (See above: I am completely delusional.) Had I realized it'd take me two days to do that, I only would have aimed for 10k. Which I still would have missed. :D

Projects Worked On: smoochfest
Did you Finish a Thing?: Nope, but that's alright.
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), Did You Meet Them? Yes! Plot outlined, point by point, with bullet points and everything, and figured out some stickiness re: setting and characters for translating my smoochfest source material.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? If not for a word war deadline, definitely would've spent tonight watching parks & rec. Continuing to totally <3 the word wars.
