Admin Announcement & Week 5 Word Count Check-In

First things first... I'd like to say that the weekly mod posts that were originally going to alternate between your mods are being cut back some, due to RL health and surgery issues for [personal profile] havocthecat. [community profile] thelittlebang is still going strong, she just might not have as visible a presence as initially planned for the next while.

This also means that the beta/cheerleader match-ups may take a little longer than initially planned. We are hoping to have that completed before the end of the month for all of you.



In other news, we're 1/3 of the way through the initial creative phase, and it's time for a word count check. To go with the three months of creation idea, that' means everyone should be somewhere around 5k words completed at this point. If you're more than that, more power to ya! If you're less than that, it's not the end of the world.

I will freely admit that I haven't even started mine yet.

So, how's everyone doing on their projects? Are your muses cooperating? Getting a lot of words written? Hit a brick wall on the creativity front?

And for the check-in itself, I'm going to borrow a template from [livejournal.com profile] sentinelbigbang, because it works out really nicely, and turn it into a textarea box for you to c/p. You don't have to use the template if you don't want to. Feel free to modify as needed.



Feel free to share some details about your project, maybe a summary or some hints, but please don't post actual extracts. We may have a post for that sort of thing later on down the line.

Yay! I hope you enjoy the end result. :) Oh, absolutely, they were two of my favorite parts of the movie. (Haha, I am wretched at both killing characters and writing unhappy endings, so in this case, that is pretty much guaranteed!)

no shame at being wretched at those counts!! :)
