READY! GET SET! GO!!!!

[tryslora]

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, March 19th 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 Monday, March 23rd according to your local time. You will have FIVE 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 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 Tuesday, March 24h).

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

Total Word War Goal:
Projects To Be Worked On: getting art into the computer (aka photographing it), rough timeline of a fic, captions for some art
Other Goals doing at least 4 items from my To-Do List of Doom
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, etc.)? If anyone is up for being added to my work in progress filter for purposes of feedback, cheerleading, or just seeing what I'm up to, drop me a PM. I'm in over my head and just being able to talk about it or show bits of stuff helps.

[smallbrownfrog.livejournal.com]

Wow! Going big here! :-)

[smallbrownfrog.livejournal.com]

Here's to the half way point! *raises a toast* You can do it.

[smallbrownfrog.livejournal.com]

I can see you getting mentally prepared. You can do this!

[smallbrownfrog.livejournal.com]

I love that icon. I keep thinking that it's a magician's hat and how appropriate that is for a writer. You *will* magic those words into existence.

[smallbrownfrog.livejournal.com]

Man, talk about a multidimensional set of goals: auctioning, impregnating, biting, and knitting. You can do it!

[smallbrownfrog.livejournal.com]

You can do it! You *are* doing it! (Stating the goal is the first step of reaching it.)

[smallbrownfrog.livejournal.com]

*offers a drink up for the muse*

You can do it. That plot is waiting for you.
