We're done! Monday 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. 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 Tuesday. 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!

Did you Finish a Thing?: I finished the chapter I set out for. So Yay!
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? And I finally know where the last bit is going :D
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? Yay, WW! Could not have done it without that extra push. Thank you so much, everyone <3

Did you Finish a Thing?: YESSSS!!!
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? After so much struggling, I finally managed to finish the fic I've been working on for weeks - YAY!
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I almost lost my faith, but thank you all for support and much needed cheers!

Did you Finish a Thing?: No, but I am VERY CLOSE.
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 planned on cleaning up what I had already written, which I did. I wanted to get past a point I was stuck on, which I did. I also wanted to have a brilliant night on Saturday and get very drunk. Which I did. I'm calling it all a success.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)?
I didn't meet my word goal, but I think it went brilliantly. I wouldn't have written this much without you guys, so thanks!

Did you Finish a Thing?: YEP!
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. At least in regards to the one thing that I managed to work on.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I didn't get anywhere close to my goal (okay, so I got halfway there) but I'm really pleased with what I got done.

Did you Finish a Thing?: I can't believe i get to say this, but: YES.
If You Set Other Goals, Did You Meet Them? Finished the scene then finished the fic! That unrealistic goal of finishing doesn't seem so unrealistic now!
Anything To Share? Holy fuck. I can not believe my word count, or that i finished the fic. THANK YOU to everyone who's cheered me on, it's helped so much. Now: to edit! (I'm actually super excited about this part :D)

Projects Worked On: original fic/novel
Did you Finish a Thing?: yes, a chapter - YAY!
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 think I started to figure out the dynamics between my hero and villain; don't want to make the villain a wimp. In that process (and perhaps because I've been reading DracoTopsHarry) I think they are getting a bit of a slashy vibe - and this is a het romance novel. Ha! Ha!
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? Thank you, Word Warriors, for your support!! :)

Did you Finish a Thing?: Some drabbles
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? My characters live together. No sex yet.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? Not sure how I feel about this fic......

Projects Worked On: HarryDracoMpreg, other random fic, Secrets: The Sequel
Did you Finish a Thing?: NO, damnit, but I'm so close. SO CLOSE. I'll probably get it done tomorrow. I hope. Unless there's more sex. They just keep having sex and I don't know how to make them stop. It's getting to be a problem.
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? HA. No.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I made the discovery that my not-quite-writer's-block only applies to things with deadlines. So, there's that.

Projects Worked On: smoochfest, random other thing
Did you Finish a Thing?: I *think* so. I finished a draft of a thing, but with notes about where some stuff may need to be added and a loooong editing list. But the bulk of the writing is done.
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!! They had sex TWICE! Or maybe four or five times, if you count the ones that aren't written about in detail.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I wrote 6542 words today. My left pinky finger hurts, but my word count ends in 69 so (a) it's all okay, (b) I'm 14. Feeling very relieved and a little accomplished, but oh man there's a lot of editing left to do. Siiiiiiigh. Also: cake and booze were acquired. Conclusion: Word wars are awesome.

Did you Finish a Thing?: actually, yes, drafted my first MG entry (shockingly)
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? nope
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I failed miserably at this war, from writing to cheering, and I am ever thankful for those who are supportive and wonderful and have cheered others on while writing!

Did you Finish a Thing?: No
If You Set Other Goals, Did You Meet Them? I had wanted to finish chapter 9... well, chapter 9 is now over 7000 words long, so I'm probably going to end up cutting it into 2 chapters. So, jein. (German for yes and no together.)
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? Thanks for the incentive, I'm happy that I got as much done as I did.
