This is your CHECK IN POST!


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 Thursday, February 26th 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 Sunday, March 1st according to your local time. You will have FOUR 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 [livejournal.com profile] 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 Monday, March 2nd).

8 ! ALL WORDS ARE AWESOME WORDS! Good luck everyone!

Total Word War Goal: 30 pages edited
Projects To Be Worked On: my merlin monster
Other Goals? Fix up characterisations
Anything To Share? I'm gunna go ahead and use this as an editing war! I'm determined to finish this thing and if I have to edit what I have so far before I do that, I will... on another note, I think I'm much better at editing/betaing than I am at writing in the first place.

Total Word War Goal: As many as possible, really
Projects To Be Worked On: my Beltane fic
Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever)? Establish the setting without getting too wordy or bogged down by too many details -- I've already bookmarked 3 dozen resources! *facepalm*
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, etc.)? not sure how much I can change characters' names and/or backgrounds to create a believable AU without sliding into original fic *sigh*

Go kitty! You can do this. Remember that you can prune out some details when you edit. Or you can save some to sprinkle in the story mix as you go.

(and yes that is an innuendo- i am just bad at making them) and you are the last comment- so my comments totally get weird with time... i think it is because my brain just says- dont write the same everywhere mix it up, make it fun, it never thinks about the impression that makes- well, rambling

you can do it!
go you!
