My weekend plans are to finish this much-longer-than-I-originally-intended gift fic. Please wish me luck! ;-)

*wishing you much sleep and also many words* <3

ETA: 7th: 1,409 words. Love confessions are happening!! But I'm going to stop for the day and be sociable. ;-p

[kate]

Wooo, excellent word count! And sociable too, sounds like a great day!

[genarti]

We have a houseguest, so my plans are primarily to show her around and finish watching sad spies make bad life choices A Spy Among Friends, but I'm hoping to fit in some writing too! Today (Thursday) I managed a pretty token bit of writing, just a couple of sentences to get myself above zero for the day, but I did manage those couple of sentences.

[kate]

Woo hoo, congrats on getting some sentences in. And yay for a houseguest! Hope you have an enjoyable weekend, and still manage to sneak in a few words!

[lferion]

5 Oct - got a couple sentences on my innumerable stars assignment, and I think I have a handle on how the piece is going to go.

Still need to post the fan Flashworks sonnet, perhaps tomorrow.

[kate]

Congrats on your words, and on seeing the structure of a piece, that's fantastic progress!

[luzula]

Oops, forgot to check in on the previous post. I hope you got some words on that WIP!

Day 5: 200 words of werewolf fic, and I am done with this section! \o/ I started re-reading and editing, but didn't quite finish before bedtime. Total wordcount: 28,200.

[kate]

No worries, check in wherever, it's all good for me! As long as you put the day on it, I'm happy to add it to the tally. Congrats on finishing a section!

[spikedluv]

I hope to get a little more written tomorrow morning, but I rarely get much written once Pip is home, sadly.

Day 6: This morning I managed to add ~650 words of missing scenes to fill out my fic some more!

[kate]

Woot, congrats on a good wordcount today, and honestly, time with Pip is definitely better than writing anyway. <3

[regshoe]

I had my long day full of plans (doing fandom-related archive research) today and am now very tired, so I intend to spend tomorrow resting and gloating over my wonderful bounty sorting out results of research.

Day 6: Also read through and edited chapter 19.

[kate]

Ooooh, that does sound exhausting, but fun and in the name of a good cause! Congrats on your haul!

[regshoe]

Thank you :D

[luzula]

Oooh, very curious about this and looking forward to eventual posts about it! : D

[regshoe]

:D I will write up a post soon!

[sylvanwitch]

On Day 6, I added 392 words to the outline while on my lunch break because we are going away for the long weekend, getting in at our first hotel (we're doing it in two stages because we're tired) late-ish, so I took what time I had to write.

I will write in the hotel each morning before heading out for the day's adventure. :-)

[kate]

Wow, congrats on fitting your writing into that schedule! Hope you have a lovely long weekend, and good luck fitting words in!

[alightbuthappypen]

Day 6: Horrible no-good day to the end the week - only a couple of alibi sentences (33 words, ha) could be forced out when I looked at the document. Hope for better things tomorrow!

[kate]

Words are words! Even baby steps are forward progress! Here's to a productive weekend!

[omens]

I'm not part of your club but I love seeing you pop up every day. HI KATE!! I hope you have good weekend writing mojo!

[kate]

<33333333333333 TY BB!!!!! It's good to see you too! Sorry I'm hardly ever in slack anymore. :(

I thought, back when I was at least getting alibi sentences back in, oh, June, that I would be in a better place to host in October. LOLLLLLLL jokes on me, ha. But I don't back down when I've volunteered so here I am. Hope springs eternal but I am also trying not to be disappointed if words don't come, it's a hard line to walk.

[badly_knitted]

May the words treat you kindly over the weekend.

Oct 6th - 1244 words, a 1k challenge fic, minor edits on a fic for posting, and some work late last night on an unfinished fic I decided to take a peek at.

[kate]

Dang, great count and great variety! Way to go!

Here's to a productive weekend for both of us!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you, I was pleasantly surprised I wrote so much.

Today, it's back to the spook_me fic...

[shadaras]

Day 6: 1.2k

[kate]

Excellent, strong work!

[sanguinity]

Oct 6: Words!

[kate]

Way to go! Words are great!

[chanter1944]

Checking in for days 4, 5, and 6.

A few sentences for both days 4 and 5, word count not tracked exactly. Not zero for either. :)

130 words, at least, for day 6.

[kate]

Way to go, keeping on keeping on! Here's to more words in days to come!

[cornerofmadness]

Day 6 mostly handwritten stuff and sounding boarding the next chapters with a friend

[kate]

Ah, soundboarding is my favorite stuff. Sounds like a great way to get words!

[cornerofmadness]

mine too

[yasaman]

Day 6: 447 words on my main WIP, and 563 words on the new one for me today!

[kate]

Woo hoo, fantastic wordcount!
