I didn't feel like writing today, but I still managed to do 1,050. Not bad, considering my lack of motivation.

Next up to the plate is flipflop_diva.

Go forth and make words!

Here it is, the all-new 2016 1_million_words friending meme! Come on in, the water's fine! Tell us about yourself, then read through everyone else's replies and make friends!

The Questions

What is your goal this year beyond that: Something a little more personal
Where in the world are you: Just generally, we're not planning on camping on your lawn
Current Fandom(s): Ones you create in currently
Earlier/old Fandom(s): Ones you used to create in, but don't so much any more
Do you Original fic? Read it, write it, both?
Favorite comm(s): Other than us
Gen, Het, or Slash:
Languages you write in:
Favourite 'go to' movie(s) and why: Movies you'll watch again and again because they make you laugh/cry/feel better/whatever
Favourite movie/TV show genre(s): Horror-comedy and SF-comedy? ME TOO!
What inspires you? Do you have a muse who whispers things at you randomly, or perhaps you read headlines in the newspaper and then think Barney Rubble would look so good doing that!

What type of creative project(s) would you like to get better at:
Coffee, Pepsi, tea, Coke, water, juice, vodka: What's your poison while you create, after sex, or while you sneak-read under your desk at work?
Tell us about your Pet(s): Does your dog beg for tidbits, is your cat a burglar in its spare time, do you have bunnies that multiply more than the ones in your head?
Do your friends/family encourage you to create?
Name a song that always makes you cry like a baby:
How's your memory: Like a goldfish, an elephant or somewhere in between?

2015 Shameless Brag Book!

[guineamania.livejournal.com]

2015 was AWESOME here at 1MW

So 2015 was my first 1MW year and I can honestly say WE ROCKED IT!

So here is your chance to gloat and share you favourite things that you wrote/made in 2015!

I thought I would start us off with possibly the best (definately the best recieved) thing I wrote in 2015.

Avengers Interference - http://archiveofourown.org/works/4081024/chapters/9191461
This is what happens when my Daredevil obsession turns to crossovers. It was so much fun to write and I felt my heart swell everytime someone complimented it. I honestly miss writing it but it ran its course!

So I challenge you all to sift through the thousands of words and graphics produced and come up with what you are most proud of and post it in the comments here so we can have a post summing up the Best of 2015!!

Also as Dreamy did last year: I will also be offering rewards to those who contribute to help with the effort for 2016: I write and make icons and sigtags.
Here is my list of fandoms: http://1-million-words.livejournal.com/32093.html?thread=10553693#t10553693

Good Luck and enjoy the trail of memories!

Daily Count Challenge to guineamania!

[flipflop-diva.livejournal.com]

My muse has been all over the place since this year started, but I had an awesome word count day yesterday, so going into today, my work count tracker for the year told me I was about 1,500 words behind schedule. So I wrote 1,709 words for my Extreme Big Bang, and now I am 200 above where I need to be \o/ I'm not sure how great the words are, but I'm proud of myself for forcing through and getting something on paper!

So guineamania, take it away! I wish you all sorts of luck! You can do it!
