~~Happy 15th Anniversary to us!!!~~

Happy 2024, everyone! Let's ring in the new year with achieved goals and lots of words written!
As of right now, all previous constant goals from past years have been wiped clean and we will be starting anew.

It has been a hot minute since last we graced your TLs. The short answer is that RL got to be really hectic. The long answer is ...well, it's just too long and insane to get into. But we're back and we're hoping there are still some people out there willing to join us again!

Per usual, you can ~~either~~ comment here ~~or on the previous month's writers post~~ for your goal for this month.
~~And current participants, don't forget to comment with your final December word count :)~~

You can always commit to a constant goal the whole year, if you find it easier than to comment every month. Just let me know and I'll add you to the list automatically.

( Welcome! to those of you who are new... )
We understand that people have lives, and that writing is not always easy when life gets in the way. But, if you want to challenge yourself and make writing a part of your daily life, this is a good way to start:)

Please comment if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you:)

We're a bit behind, but here's hoping 2021 is better for us than 2020 has been overall, right?

And remember, you can either do the whole month or start from today. Just let me know in your comment which you're doing, so I can adjust accordingly.

{admin} Mea Culpa. COVID-19 has been rough on me... AKA It's Catch-up Time

Mon, 07 Sep 2020 03:06:53 GMT

Posted by: ariestess

Like the subject line says, COVID-19 [and my increased duties at my newish job] has been wreaking havoc on me. Mea culpa for letting this comm slide in the midst of all that.

So let's just use this post as a catch-all for the last 5 months.

Time for me to catch up, so this is what I need from you between now and Friday 11 September 2020:

Your goals for April, May, June, July, and August.
Your final word count totals from April, May, June, July, and August [and March if you never got it to me in the first place].

I am posting the September sign-up list in the next post after this one, and that should get us back on track.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to leave them here or PM me.

Thanks for your patience, y'all!

{admin} Bit of a catch up...

Okay, not quite sure what happened as I distinctly remember posting the participants list for January, but it's nowhere to be found, so I'm going to get that updated in a few minutes here, as well as posting up the sign-ups for February.

Because of the time situation, you have the option to sign up for February either for the whole month [if you've been tracking so far] or from the point that you sign up. Just let me know which you're doing when you sign up on that post, which will also be posted in a few minutes here.

My job situation has hopefully calmed a bit, so I'm not quite running around like a chicken with its head cut off at this point anymore, and we can hopefully get back to a better schedule.

Thanks for your patience!
