Big Buddy August

August the Amazing!

Comment here with the count you can reach in the month of August (remember to factor in holidays, finals, road trips, pajama days, hangovers, etc). I will check in with you every 6(ish) days to make sure you are on schedule, to push you if you aren't, and to shake pompoms at you if you are (Well, I'll probably shake pompoms at you either way).

Your count is up to you. There is no minimum beyond what you decide. But Big Buddy will be watching you! If you pledge 100 words/images, then every 6 days chime in to tell us that you've produced 20% of them.

This is not words to be done in lieu of something else. If you have a bingo, or a big bang, or a drabble-a-day, it all counts! Words/images do not have to be posted to count, they just have to be done!

I know class is starting again...but I'm still going to shoot for 50k. What the heck, right? ;)

Put me down for 2k.

I'll stick with 15k, please.

[identity profile] asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com 2016-07-26 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Even though I'm not sure I'm going to hit my goal for July, put me down for 15k again in August.

[identity profile] slashluv18.livejournal.com 2016-07-26 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
20k

[identity profile] afrozenflowerr.livejournal.com 2016-07-26 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)

I'm feeling pretty confident for August (crossing fingers the hurricanes stay away), so I'm going to try for 5,000 this go around.

Thanks!

I'm in! And shooting for 50,000 words! See how positive that sounds even though I'm in the midst of an epic fail again this month? ;)

There is this story I really need to finish already, so I'm in ^^ Put me down for 10k.

[identity profile] dracosdreamer.livejournal.com 2016-07-27 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
i'll try for 2000 since i only have three weeks of the month totally free.

[identity profile] guineamania.livejournal.com 2016-07-27 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
30k for me please! Last month before uni so time to get rid of this deficit

[identity profile] katleept.livejournal.com 2016-07-27 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll be shooting for 30k again. I'd cross my fingers, but it's a little hard to write that way. ;)

31/3,100 100 words a day... when the weather gets cooler I may try a drabble/ficlet a day.

I am slack, so I need a kick. I'll aim for 3K for August, just to keep a hand in, as I have lots to do before Sept!

Well even though I've done horribly these past two months, I have to raise my monthly goal if I want to have any chance of making my yearly goal. So let's hope that August is good to me!

My goal is 24K.

[identity profile] suicix.livejournal.com 2016-07-29 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Can I get another 10k, please?

[identity profile] flipflop-diva.livejournal.com 2016-07-29 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I'm going to try for 25k in August and see if maybe I can get even a little bit back on track!

[identity profile] lasairfhiona.livejournal.com 2016-08-02 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going to try for 1,000 words, we'll see if it happens
