Melee (noun)
me·lee [mey-ley, mey-ley, mel-ey]

noun
1. a confused hand-to-hand fight or struggle among several people.
2. confusion; turmoil; jumble: the melee of Christmas shopping.

Origin: 1640–50; < French mêlée. See medley

Now YOU come up with a sentence (or fic? or graphic?) that best illustrates the word.

Icons

It's Thinky-thought Thursday and we've come around to images again.

What is your favorite icon, and why?

Maybe it's something you made, maybe you found it, or it was made for you. What does it evoke from you, what do you want other people to think when they see it?

I'm really not good at 'favorites'. I'm a little to mercurial for that, things change day to day, minute to minute; but this icon, by whispered_tones, makes me feel comfortable and friendly.

What have you got that makes you feel good?

Wanna Race?

IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN! NOT ONLY IS IT THE LAST RACE OF THE MONTH BUT IT’S TIME TO -
REACH THAT PLEDGE COUNT!

Time going for the distance. Your goal is to get to YOUR goal. If you have already matched or beaten your goal, then you're race for another 10% or more than your monthly goal in 3 days. So if you goal was 10,000 words you're aiming for 1,000.

Icons?? Sure same rules - get to goal or 10% more than your monthly Icon goal.



THAT’S IT! YOU TYPE. YOU COUNT YOUR WORDS. YOU REACH THE FINISH LINE, YOU GET A PRIZE.


Wait! What? I can get a prize and not have to type the most words?

YES! THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I MEAN, IF YOU HIT THAT GOAL OR GET 10% WRITTEN IN 3 DAYS, YOU GET TO PICK YOUR PRIZE.


A pair of icons to order.
A gift drabble, requested by you, in a fandom I write in. (Because I might be doing a lot of these the will be much shorter than my normal gift fic.)

Like last time I'll post a word check in each day I will be posting a word count check in.

THIS DOES NOT TAKE PLACE OF THE WEEKEND CHALLENGE, BUT IT IS A LITTLE EXTRA TO GET YOU and me A TYPING.


QUESTIONS?

WHO’S WITH ME?

<B>Name you wished your parents named you as a child:</b> <b>I Need____ words to make my goal OR I am going for ____ more words above my goal:</b> <b>This is awesome because I want _____ done before October:</B> <B>ONLY 3 MORE MONTHS TO SHOW THE WORLD HOW TRULY AWESOME WE ARE!</B>
