Anyone else?

[aquila_star]

So I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year...anyone else? I've got a H/D fic in my head that's been there at least a year that I need to get out.

I'm doing really well at almost 17k, but need to keep that motivation up. If anyone is doing NaNo and wants a buddy, I'm under the same name. :D

And GOOD LUCK!!

I've also submitted a fic for the kirk_mccoy holiday

Added you. Sounds like we're at about the same place, count-wise. I'm just trying to keep to at least 2k a day, and so far so good. Usually by now I've fallen behind a little. Or I'm starting to. Hopefully that won't happen this year...

[aquila_star]

I've set my personal goal at 75k, which means 2500-ish a day, and I'm gonna have to crank it up a notch. It's coming along nicely. though, plot wise. :D

Good luck with yours, I hope you can keep to that pace this year...it's my first and I'm interested to see how I manage. :D

[elfflame]

Wow! That's amazing! Good luck with that. I've never failed 50k for NaNo (this is my fifth time, I think. Sixth...something like that) but the one time where I didn't even start. I was actually considering trying two separate fics, but I have another fic due this weekend, so not going there. May make it to 60k, though.

I hope you manage! I absolutely love the forums, though they're terribly addictive.

[aquila_star]

Yeah, I try to keep myself to once or twice a day on the forums. :D Otherwise I will be there way too much.

I wrote a 100k word for for The Eagle fandom in May, so I know I can do it, it's just a matter of getting it done. This fic will be well over 50k, probably closer to 100k as well, so I'll have to put it aside until after the Eagle Big Bang is done. That need only be 15k though, and I've got 6k in the bag already .

Holiday exchanges are great, but oh, the deadlines. :P It's a good think I work well under them ;) I'm going to be doing Nano every year, I think, it's a great motivational tool for a fic writer who has too many distractions without a deadline. :D

>.> *pokes....prods....nudges*

So....what happened to these fics you mentioned hm? NaNoWriMo? And the eagle_bigbang fic?? I want to reaaaaaaaads!

[aquila_star]

Ahh yes, unfortunately the Eagle BB fic didn't come together as I'd hoped...otoh, it is complete and soo close to being ready. I'll try to get it up this week, just for you. ;)

The Nano fic is incomplete...I did win that month, but the fic will be longer than 50k. ;) That one will take longer, but I'll get there. :D

[chyldofeternity]

WOO! Eagle fic!! Is this one AU as well? Gimme some teasers! I NEED INFO! *clings to you and grins innocently*

[aquila_star]

Yes, it's AU...they've graduated to college, lol. It's in a different universe. It involves flirting, cooking and more flirting. ;)
