Have you reached the end of Friday in your time zone? Then it's time to check in! We're heading into the weekend for the final stretch and still have some great writing time ahead! 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, Are You Progressing? Well, yesterday I made no words, so I guess so. I'm not particularly proud of what I've written though.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? I'm ridiculously unmotivated and I don't even know why D:

Date: 2014-07-05 03:53 am (UTC)With you on the motivation and the not being especially proud. I think sometimes one just has to plow through? That may not be particularly helpful, but do remember that you can always edit.

Date: 2014-07-05 11:30 am (UTC)I agree, sometimes one just has to plough through. It's not particularly pleasant or motivating (I keep pulling my hair because what am I doing OMG? xD) But if it has to be done, then it has to be done :)
no subject
Date: 2014-07-05 07:45 pm (UTC)It's so unpleasant and unmotivating, seriously omg. But it has to be done. And if you're hair pulling and need to vent, you can always hit me up, I'm doing the exact same thing.

Projects Worked On: LYH and a tumblr prompt
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? I finished the chapter of LYH. I still need to do more art and stuff. Today was too chaotic and rainy.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)?
Camping is chaotic on the Fourth of July. Unpleasantly so. I am hoping most of these crazy people bug out early on Sunday because they need to get home!
GO WORDS!!

Projects Worked On: today was all fest plotting and research
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? Eh. Plotting and research is usually super fun, but today I just wanted to write. Hopefully that'll stick around till tomorrow.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? So many things and they're all spoilers for anon fests. Umm. I'd like to know why people start setting of fireworks before it's dark out. Pep talks or butt-kicking wouldn't go amiss, either, especially if they're fun-rediscovery pep talks. Though it has gotten funner! Yay fun! *is tired* *coherence waning*

Date: 2014-07-05 02:16 pm (UTC)*kicks butt* You made a good amount of words, and I know you'll make more! Yay research! Now you can settle in and let all the words out.

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'm way into the story now, so my new goal would be to reach the midpoint by the end of the word war! :P Not sure I can, but I'll try anyway! :P
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? Happy to have managed to start with the story. I'm still not completely sure about it, but at least I've started it! :D
