READY! GET SET! GO!!!!

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 Friday, July 3rd 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, July 5th according to your local time. You will have THREE 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, July 7th).

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

Total Word War Goal: 1,5k
Projects To Be Worked On: fest fic and a review
Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever)?
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, etc.)? After a month without writing a single word in my current story I really need to get going (deadline is looming).

Total Word War Goal:2,000
Projects To Be Worked On:Marvel Bang, Harry Bang, and Dramione Duet
Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever)?Get as much done on the first two as possible.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, etc.)?I'm going to try and be more consistent with participating in the word wars, but I've had too many lulls lately where I just can't seem to do any writing.

You can do this! I'll try with keeping the word wars coming :)

Total Word War Goal: Finish one thing
Projects To Be Worked On: cliche, drizzle, Sterek BB, Marvel BB, and HDOTP if I get two things done, and possibly this one thing I told someone on Tumblr I'd write (I might need another hiatus to slow my roll XD)
Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever)? My main goals right now are to finish cliche and drizzle and leave them alone. You know, not re-write them.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, etc.)? I usually do best with idea bouncing and feels sharing. I always tell people just talking helps me focus. I'm a spaz and like to always be moving and always be doing it helps me get my best work done.

Good luck and all the words to you

Total Word War Goal: whatever it takes (or 5k)
Projects To Be Worked On: Bitetime, TW RB
Other Goals (get characters to hook up, find a way to work in some smut/angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever)? I need to finish the draft of Bitetime, and I need to do the edits on TW RB and submit the fic.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, etc.)?

YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME! WRITE ALL THE WORDS!!

I will be sitting around my campsite ALL DAY tomorrow (except for dog walking and dog shushing) while smoking meats in my smoker, and possibly doing some baking. Come write with me in srs then!
