Sorry this is late. Please read this whole post, it's very important.
THIS IS A MANDATORY CHECK-IN FOR ALL ARTISTS AND WRITERS. If you're still game for the big bang, you need to post here.
A few notes:
- I think I need to make some dates a little clearer. By October 21, you need to e-mail your master list to us at pokeprompts@gmail.com. BUT,

Word count/art progress: 11,274. I never thought I'd ever see past 10K. I'll probably split things up into chapters to make it easier to post elsewhere later.
Could your group post on October 24: Most likely, but if I'm positioned later for an extension, I certainly wouldn't complain. My team is just a writer and beta team, and I picked up another who'll help me with my action scenes, so any artists wanting to help, it's still wide open!
Talk to us: This is my first Big Bang, and it's been a real challenge. I'm used to short and sweet oneshots, so I learned 10000 words is a lot, but after I do this, I think I'll be ready to write more often. I really fell out of habit writing my stories and it feels great to be back at the keyboard again.

Word count/art progress: Not done. 4/5 parts done. Over 30k words so far and seems to go for 40k or 50k. Beta is pretty fast so the editing won't be too long hopefully? Not sure when the artist will be drawing or when the artist will be done drawing.
Could your group post on October 24: I... think I could?
Talk to us: [deleted because of venting] I'll feel better after the mid-terms and get some rest. Need a final rush to finish the big bang fic this weekend, but if I can finish the rush on Friday night it'll be awesome.

Word count/art progress: Word count is at around 13000.
Could your group post on October 24: My group is just me. I would love to not post on October 24, but if I had to, I could do it.
Talk to us: There's a way to end a narrative arc pretty soon, and there's another way to end a narrative arc at, like, 30000 probably. I have a bunch of notes and outline toward the later one and am probably going to scrap them (or just come back to this project in six months), but if I can finish the first arc in a reasonable way tonight/tomorrow I may just try to power through to the True Ending. Though the second half will be... less polished than the first if I do that, since I'm not at first draft on the first half and the second half would be... more drafty. Ummm... I need someone to sit on my shoulder in the future and tell me my outlines are too complicated for my desired wordcount?? Is this a product or service you offer or can recommend? This happens to me academically too I recently had to make a 49 page paper into 25 Also thank ( ... )

Word count/art progress: Sketches
Could your group post on October 24: Eeeeerrr Probably not. Another week would be SUPER appreciated.
Talk to us: Life is kicking my ass. But I will manage. Am in touch with my author who is pretty much in the same situation.

Word count/art progress: 18,0000 and sort of counting as I add more random bits. But it's mostly finished.
Could your group post on October 24: Yes, I could, my beta was great and we got that done last week sooo I should be fine, just doing last-minute read-throughs now.
Talk to us: Except for that new chapter of the manga totally destroying my characterization of N, and midterms coming up, I'm dandy. x3
