Daily Count Challenge to backrose_17.

[itsanonyx.livejournal.com]

Sadly I couldn't do anything yesterday (October 01) because I had to deal with migraine and throwing up almost all day long. :o(

I just created 5 sigtags for a Challenge and posted some results in one of my Communities. So it's little success.

I'm passing the very late torch to backrose_17. Good luck and have fun. <3

Monthly stats are here for September!

Here we go! I am actually not terribly behind this time around! I am trying my best to get to this as soon as I can now, which is paying off this month!



Read on for the exciting news!





( Under here to see all of the months' progress as we go along! )

Don't forget our Creative work so far this year! Look at the fun stuff over here! Keep up the great work! Comment in today's post here if anything there inspires you, there's nice things you want to say, or you want to discuss in any other way - I'm sure the person or people who have added their creations over there will be only too happy to discuss, explain, show off, etc, if you ask!

Don't forget everything going on at the comm that can help inspire you, including the current long challenge, Crossovers, which ends on the 15th October. You only have a couple of weeks left to join in, but YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO! angelus2hot, who is hosting, has been posting some great things, so keep your eyes tuned for the last posts so you can get your creations in!

if you missed updating for Sept, be sure to get those numbers updated between now and the end of October so we can be sure to count ALL of your wonderful words!

Keep at it, everyone, and let's be creative out there!!! ;-)

Two Monday turns on time; it's unheard of!

YES! Something is going right for me! Last time K asked me to do this, I actually managed to get it done on time, and OMG, here I am again! There must be something in the water...

So, how are you all doing? I am sick, sick, sick of work, but otherwise healthy (we won't mention allergies). I still haven't actually written anything fictiony this year, but as luck would have it, I pulled out my graphics brain in September and made all of THREE icons! Woot, go me. HA! Compare to the wonderfulness that is severina2001 and itsanonyx, who both gave us incredible graphics numbers this month, that is positively slack, but for me, it's amazeballs!

And if you are Big Buddying, you have just kicked off into October so the percentage to aim for is around 9% of your monthly total. How are you doing? Hitting the mark or still need a kick to get you there? You still have plenty of time to catch up, anyway! Hit the previous posts for more prompts if you need 'em!

Speaking of prompts, I am far too lazy these days to find you links, so get scrolling, or find the appropriate tabs to see the Word of the Day, Numbers, A-Z, Weekend Challenge, our current long challenge Crossovers, or any other of our wonderful regular posts to find some cool and groovy prompts to inspire your Muse, if you need 'em!

Your Flash Challenge for today is: Flying high! Whether that's high on drugs because your character has been kidnapped or had their drink spiked for evil purposes and is about to take drastic measures to escape, or they're a pilot who has just avoided a crash landing, or maybe your character has just joined the mile-high club, or is just sitting down to their favourite movie, Top Gun (substitute as needed!), then come on! We want to hear that story! One hundred words or a thousand, we want to see it! Or maybe it's graphically inspiring to you in some way? Pat yourself on the back if you make it and share it with me or the wide world!

What's left? Oh, what will you do this week to make more awesomeness in your life, and coincidentally, more words for us here at 1MW? I cannot say, at this point, that I have great plans to make words, but I do have some Christmas gifts to continue crocheting, so here's hoping I can get those numbers up where I want them, and also get to make more of my Christmas cards! It's only 12 weeks till the 25th Dec, so it's time to get moving on them!

And before I forget, let's remember to thank each other for our awesomeness! THANK YOU, each and every one of our members, as without you, we'd be nothing! *hugs*

Have a great week, everyone! ;-)

not as much done today as I'd intended, thanks to having to fight with the DMV...
