We're done! Sunday 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 three 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 Monday. 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!

Projects Worked On: smooch
Did you Finish a Thing?: 2 chapters :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?
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I'm not sure if anyone is going to like this, but I'm having a hell of a good time writing (and researching) this story.

There is bound to be someone who enjoys reading it as much as you enjoy writing it

Projects Worked On: hd_smoochfest and third time's the charm
Did you Finish a Thing?: yeah, I cleaned up & finished the fic linked above and posted it
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? yeah
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? I'm not that bothered about not making my goal, I have plenty of time to finish the fic and I guess I needed a low key weekend.

Did you Finish a Thing?: YES -- the new prologue!
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? Not quite. I'd hoped to finsh the former prologue (now chapter 1) as well, but no such luck. *sigh*
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? Is it really that important to have accurate details in an AU? I suspect that nobody but me really cares (or would actually KNOW how accurate things are), but I just can't bring myself to write things I haven't researched as well as I'm able. Trouble is, not only do I get sidetracked by research, it also SERIOUSLY cuts into my writing time! Waaaah ... extension request, here I come!

Projects Worked On: Birthday ficlet, Smooch, DTH
Did you Finish a Thing?: Yes! The ficlet is posted and DTH is as far as I can get it without a beta.
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?
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? Thank you to everyone who offered butt-kicking. I'm just sad that I went and got a nasty cold that meant I spent most of the weekend asleep or in a zombie state. I'm sad I didn't make my word goal, but I am proud of myself for getting so much done despite feeling wretched. I have y'all to thank for that!

Projects Worked On: fullmoon, auction fic
Did you Finish a Thing?: I posted the edited Fullmoon and I finished a chapter of the auction fic which I can give to the recipient tomorrow.
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 knitted. I sort of cheered but not always?
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)?
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME.

Total Words Written: 15 edited pages PLUS 1029 words O_o
Projects Worked On: my merlin monster
Did you Finish a Thing?: I finished editing *bounces with excitement*
If You Set Other Goals, Did You Meet Them? I think I fixed as much of the characterisation as I can and I hope that carries on to the new words too.
Anything To Share? OMG, I meet my goals and exceded them! Not to mention writing over 1k in a day. I think I had my most productive fandom day in years yesterday. I am so glad I made the choice to make this 3 day war over my long weekend!
Thank you so much to everyone who encouraged me along the way, especially my sprinting buddies on the srsbzn chat!!! *hugs to all*

Did you Finish a Thing?: no
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 met two out of four goals. I finished the character's hair I was working on, and I spent more than my goal of an hour and a half working on my fest project.
Anything To Share (flailing, squeeing, sobbing, etc.)? The word war helped keep me moving on what would have been a completely unproductive day. It's too easy to say I'm too tired after work. So, thank you all.

*shamefully crawls back here*
ok, this was a real life kicking me hard weekend- one friend of mine broke 5 bones, and the other one is going through a very bad break-up (broken bones is now at home with her parents some 140km away from me, and break-up is trying to move on, but i visit and there are sms and calls)
in my defense, i put yesterday (monday) 5,5k down so i tried *still feeling bad*
but i know all words are good words, and now i have a bunch more of them that i had before *tries to think positive*
