Ten Days Left

[irony-rocks.livejournal.com]

This post will freak people out, but I totally don't mean to do that. It's just honestly a friendly reminder that you have ten days left before the deadline for submissions. All artwork and fics are due on Septeber 25th, 2011 at noon PST sharp. More info on submission guidelines. Got any questions? Drop 'em here!

Feel free to turn your work in early, as that would help me and my little website helper out IMMENSELY.

... so, like, how are people doing? Feel free to use this post to flail and commisserate with one another!

Almost done! Just waiting to get the last 3 chappies back from my beta and then do one final read through and any extra edits I might need to do. It should definitely be in early though.

I'm down to coloring and it's stressing me out to no end XD
I'm so worried to dissapoint my writer that I actually stared at my work for a good 45 mins earlier today.
LOL!

I decided mid-fic I want to switch from present to past tense. So yea...*flail* There's still hope, though. The idea that I have an artist working hard on art for this is shaming me into writing lol.

[hiddencait.livejournal.com]

Oh! Had another quick question: if we decided to use the RichText Formatting option, what kind of chapter breaks would you like us to use?

[irony-rocks.livejournal.com]

I prefer a horizontal line to be used, but I'm not obligating people to use that.

[buckbeakbabie.livejournal.com]

Getting there! Beta is still working away and I'm editing, editing. Definitely will have it done by late next week. :D

*flails*

[tanyareed.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm in the editing phase too, and I have been since the middle of last month. I'm still getting stuff back from my betas, but I should be done by the end of next week, if not earlier.

*flails*

I switched from one word-processor to another and lost FIVE HUNDRED WORDS according to the new word count. YIKES! MUST WRITE MOAR!

Flailing ... major flailing.

[majorshipper]

Eee. I need to finish putting together some songs for the fanmix I'm making, and get the last three chapters back to the author I'm betaing for, and I will be done. It's exciting!

*iz so excited* Go you! \o/ I know I can't wait!! :D

*breathes into a paper bag*

Seconded!

[failegaidin.livejournal.com]

Dude, I crossed the 20k mark today. I might actually be able to do this!!!!

[whiteink]

That's about where I am ... I've got 22,000. So close!!!

[leigh57.livejournal.com]

Holy crap. How did I manage to have such an early jump on this and still be choking hardcore in the final stages? I legit have one big scene, the ending of another big scene, a few tying up things, and the epilogue to finish. And done.

And suddenly I'm all, OMG I AM NEVER GOING TO FINISH. Ack. Panic.

[century-fox.livejournal.com]

You are most definitely going to finish!! Jack and Renee and I have faith in you. *huge hugs*

[slr2moons.livejournal.com]

Started the sketch for my 2nd pic last night. I'm going to do something stylized for sake of time and to stretch my own talents. I normally do realism or close to it. This will be good exercise for me!

I'm going with a generic 2nd pic of the couple, rather than a scene-from-canon, as my author hasn't reached the romance yet. I hope she's doing okay and can finish by deadline! *sends author kind and productive vibes*

[scoobydumblonde.livejournal.com]

here's a question. I don't technically have chapters. do I still need chapter breaks?

and also, as an author and an artist do I send two separate emails?

[irony-rocks.livejournal.com]

No chapters means no chapter breaks necessary. Though I certainly hope you have scene breaks! :P

And yes, two separate emails please!

[http://users.livejournal.com/traycer_/]

Almost there! Just need to do the final editing and it'll be out the door! Can't wait for reveal day!! :)

[derevko-child.livejournal.com]

I think I may have to drop out. :| School has overtaken my brain and I haven't reached the desired number of words I want -_-

[roeskva]

Editing - and realised neither google docs nor Openoffice wants to do the replacing of formatting for html-tags - and both made errors and threw in crap when I tried to just save/download to html, so...PANIC!

[rise-your-dead.livejournal.com]

Going through my final draft on Saturday, htmling and sending it in!

[kungfuwaynewho.livejournal.com]

Reading through the comments, I realize I'm further behind than I thought. I just started Act III? LOL, but I will finish! I will, I will!

(Mostly because all I'm going to do this weekend is write. Requisite awww yeahh.)

[scoobydumblonde.livejournal.com]

argh. just writing up my artwork post and realized in the author part (and artist's name) do I use LJ name or what?

[irony-rocks.livejournal.com]

Yeah, use LJ names!

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

Barring an act of my workplace being destroyed by fire or something, I've got to quit! Didn't realize this was the last weekend and I'm not at all in striking distance of the end. FAILSAUCE! I'll make it up to you in October. :(

[irony-rocks.livejournal.com]

Aww, okay! Duly noted! I know you tried your hardest!

[lilac-ayame.livejournal.com]

*flails wildly*

I think the number of words is not a problem, but the story is! It refuses to be finished! Lemme try til the very last. Hope my artist will understand.

*flails again before writing like mad*

[sugargroupie.livejournal.com]

So I'm going to have to drop out because I won't have it finished by 9/25. So disappointing, smh. Thanks for hosting this challenge, I'll be sure to read when the site opens.

[stexgirl2000.livejournal.com]

I am going to have to officially drop out. There is no way I'm going to finish in time, damn it. RL got in the way and that's all I can say.
