Hello on Wednesday!  How are things going in the world of fic?

Did you write?

   - Yes!
   - No!
   - Not yet!

If yes, what kind of writerly activity did you engage in?  How do you feel about it?
If no, what were the obstacles/situations that affected your writerly pursuits?  What will you do differently tomorrow to get more writing done?
If not yet, because the day hasn't gotten going yet, what kind of writing activity are you planning (or hoping) to accomplish?

It's time to sign up for the April WIP challenge! Some people join the challenge mid month, or comment on check-in posts without signing up, which is fine -- I'm glad there's a way for the challenge to be useful in a variety of ways. For those of you who find the commitment of signing up useful, please leave a comment with the below information.

Sign-ups will be open until the end of April.


    Level of challenge: 1 chapter, 1000 words, 1 fic finished, whatever you like
    Fandom(s) involved: if you know at this point
    What you're looking for from the challenge: this could be as vague or specific as you like: someone to be accountable to, someone to remind you to write, someone to bounce ideas off, etc.
    What you could offer other participants yourself: ditto!
    How people should contact you: DW message, e-mail, IM etc.
    Time zone: useful for seeing who might be up for a writing session at a time convenient to you


Copypaste below:



The post for hosting the daily check-in is here and thanks to everyone who helps out with this. If you're interested in helping out and there are still slots available the post remains open until the last week of the month and we generally run our week Sunday to Saturday, I'm happy to chat via PM on DW for anyone who might need it.

If you have ever completed a fic through this challenge we have a collection on AO3 and on SquidgeWorld both collections are open and unmoderated. Should there be an issue with adding a work, let me know and I'll see if there's a fix for it.

To My Friends from LiveJournal by Hayley DeRoche

taiga13: by jackshoemaker (Little Red Riding Hood)
I still think about you
Wonder if you finally quit,
Do you still speak to your mom?
I remember when you went to Japan
How you swore you’d never forgive him.
I can’t remember to take my meds but
I remember you wanted to live on a houseboat.
It’s a strange intimacy,
all of us unspooling across decades of internet space
Like balls of yarn
leaving a trail behind us of everywhere
and everyone we’ve ever been
 
I hope you got your houseboat.
I hope you got everything.

Still here

nonesensed: Vaporeon chibi (Vaporeon chibi)
Just battling a number if (minor but annoying) health problems. I feel like an old car right now - every time I fix one thing, another part of me breaks.

I've been doing my absolute best to not push myself, and thus am still behind on a million of online things, as I'm trying to prioritize writing and editing while I have computer time. I long for more time and energy to catch up on conversations and posts on here!

Current fandom shenanigans I'm entertaining myself with in-between allergies, backaches and work:
- Critical Role campaign 4 is enchanting and I adore both the plot and all the characters still. And we're finally getting the Schemers table, wohoo!
- While catching up with work I'm watching different Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 let's plays that are blind playthroughs, to enjoy seeing other people work their way through all the plot twists and lore reveals.
- The combined Clair Obscur revisits + my annoyance at being ill have birthed a Clea/Lune post-game enemies-to-lovers fic. We'll see if it ever sees the full light of day, but toying with the plot is fun enough.
- Hyped for the upcoming Witch Atelier anime adaptation!
