Saturday’s done already? Don't worry, there's still one more day left in our word war! Why don't you check in and let us know how you're doing? 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?

Projects Worked On: I wanted to get started on my owl post gift fics, but my ideas still have to grow and develop... So what I did was combing through my fan_fair fic one last time and submit! Yay, now I feel like I accomplished something this weekend! :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), Are You Progressing? No. *irons ears*
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? I didn't get to my computer until after midnight tonight. So I'll be writing a bit now, and hopefully tonight I will get to sit down earlier and together I can make up the difference.

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? somewhat - have gotten the other characters involved (thereby minimally passing the Bechdel test, yay!), built up the budding relationship a bit, got a bit more of an idea where it's going, all of which would better have been done before this, but I was preoccupied with work.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)? Too easy to get distracted by small bits of research! I do have lots of quotations to add, if I put them in the right places the structure should be clearer and word count higher. I am so lucky in having a beta willing to take a last minute look! I could use a Brit-picker too, but I seldom finish with enough time to ask for one! Luckily I am off work this week.

If You Set Other Goals, Are You Progressing? I have more words
Anything To Share? Although done first thing in the morning before sleep after Friday, they still count at Saturday words. RL took over for the rest of the day. Just over 500 more to write on Sunday to make my goal... I should have enough time Sunday night...if I'm not exhausted from other things *fingers crossed*
