In cast you missed it, we made our goal for 2015. No biggie, right? Just 15.9 MILLION WORDS!
I am so thoroughly excited! I've been telling everyone. The guy at the pizza place tried to hide his excitement, but I could see it there.
But now it's a new Monday, new month, new year! And so far 'this year' the catch phrase I've been seeing is "EVEN MORE AWESOME". I can see this as us. I totally can.
HUGE thank you to H, who threw together some information gathering posts. Go forth and check them out if you haven't already. Here, here, and here. She is awesome and deserves some applause. In then next we or so we'll be going over everything and trying to spread some things out and get things scheduled.
I was supposed to post about this month's challenge and have failed miserably. There have been some issues at home, but I'm hoping to have the post up by the end of the day. The challenge this month is Rare Pairs, so think on that until I get things in gear.
Now, tell me how awesome you've been, and your awesome plans for this week/month/year!
And also pat yourselves on the back for a 2015 that reached its goals!!!!

Date: 2016-01-04 11:32 am (UTC)Well currently I am packing to go back to Nottingham while trying to find somewhere to live next year! This whole independence shebang is so stressful!
But I am hoping to have some time to write when I get back from meeting a friend for lunch

Date: 2016-01-04 12:19 pm (UTC)So far my year has started great, I've on a good way to post what I need, and my Writing is so far even greater. I have finished two stories I started last year, with more Words than I set myself to write everyday. I so hope things can continue when things start with work and so this week, and that I not fall into less Writing after each week goes. at least it feels right now my Writing can be back.
I tried to check how I done past years, and it looked like even though I might not written that much last year it still was an improvement for the two previous years, so I feel very good about that. And this year I would be so happy if I only managed to write ONE MORE WORD. So now I'm off to see what else I can finished of what I started other years.

Date: 2016-01-04 03:37 pm (UTC)My year started great. I started a new short fic and I am quite excited for it. I should be able to finish it soon and post it. Then, there is still leftover editing from last year. *sighs* I don't like editing but I really want to post this fic.
I am excited for this month's challenge! I love writing rare pairs. I kind of have an idea of how to go about it, but I will decide when I know more info.

Date: 2016-01-04 08:20 pm (UTC)And yeah, didn't we all do so damned well! WE ARE SO AWESOME!!!
I didn't write as many words last year as in previous years, but I did make more graphics, which was pretty cool. I do have a plan for this year though, and that is to try and get as many words in per month in the early part of the year when things are quieter for me, and then perhaps the rest of the year will take care of itself!
I also plan to finish as many WIPs as possible! I got a bunch done or close to done in 2015 and have reduced my overal WIP numbers by A LOT, so that's pleasing to me, anyway! And yeah, more original fic this year (since that's where most of my WIPs now lie), so yay, me! ;-)

Date: 2016-01-05 01:50 am (UTC)Not sure I have a yearly goal either. I'd like to get 2-3 book drafts written...and at least 2 edits completed...beyond that, I'm not entirely sure ;)
