ADMIN :: Rough Draft Update

[ariestess]

First off, let me just thank each and every one of you that is hanging in with us for this round of thelittlebang. To say that RL and/or Murphy's Law has had the mods firmly in their cross-hairs is an understatement.

But more importantly, this is a quick note to say that more detailed information will be posted to the comm tomorrow [Monday, 12 September 2011], and that the deadline for rough drafts being turned in is being extended. Full details WILL appear tomorrow, as will sign-ups for complementers. We just need to iron out a couple of last minute details before that can be done.

Once again, thank you for your patience, and I hope you're all doing well.

woo extensions! :)

*hugs for the mods* hope things get better!

[ariestess]

I *think* it's getting a little better on my end...

[oparu]

yay!!! very good.

[ariestess]

Now I just have to hope I can get enough of my first draft done to qualify for a complement [tho it's a VERY little known fandom, so I'm not holding my breath unless I can talk shatterpath into doing it for me] by the deadline. And yes, that info is officially coming tonight hopefully.

*crosses fingers for you*

Maybe someone out there will know it! I've been having terribly helpful conversations with my cheerleader and trying to pretend I have a plot that's more than just cuddling and long conversations.

It's entirely possible. I'd initially signed up with a Private Practice project that ended up DEAD in the water before I really got started. So I switched to a project for Jinny/CD from The Division that I'd originally started almost 10 years ago. I've basically scrapped the whole thing and started over. Managed to get like 14-15k written in a relatively short period, but am losing a little bit of steam currently.

Wow. Epic adventures were had by you!

I've never heard of the Division, but wikipedia sounds interesting! You can do it! just shovel on more environmentally-friendly coal!

The show was great for the first 2 1/2 seasons, then it started going ridiculous [and where I got the term "to Lifetime someone" from] from mid-3rd season on. I only caught the first ep of S4 to find out what happened to CD, then stopped watching the show completely and never looked back.

My story takes place between the end of S1 and the start of S2.

[oparu]

way to set the story in the good part. too bad about the end.

[ariestess]

*nods* Well, setting it where I did makes sense, as it deals with Jinny's time in rehab, so I didn't have a lot of leeway for where to set it. LOL!
