1_million_words | 1st Long Challenge 2021: WIP Push!

Hey everyone, it's the start of another year (OK, the month is already over two weeks old, but let's not quibble!), and here's the first long challenge for you!

kitmerlot1213 will be dishing up a Three Sentence Fic challenge in Feb, but until then, for those interested, here's the WIP challenge info:

WIP Push, if you've never done it before, is all about dragging out something or somethings from your WIP folder and getting it done! If you add words to it over the period of the challenge, which runs from now until Feb 28th, then you have participated and I'll make you a participation banner at the end. If you complete and post something, you'll get a completion banner! Sound good?

You can work on a fanfic, an original fic, graphics, or whatever else you count words for; it's all good! No matter what the style, genre, fandom, or size - it's all good and all qualifies! You can even use other challenges concurrently - so if you have a WIP that needs work and say for example you decide to use the word of the day as your prompts to work on, then it counts towards both challenges. Same with any other challenge that's ongoing!

I've decided that maybe a daily goal or an overall goal might be something we could work to. Myself, I'm thinking I will work on all the banners and icons etc I need to get done for people. I'm calling this a 'work in progress' because I've had them on my list to do for a while, and although I can't honestly say I'm underway yet, I am in charge and I'm saying it counts! So if you too have graphics or words that you owe to something or someone, whether or not it's started, you can work on that if you want under this challenge.

My goal is therefore: 2 x Bingo reward banners, 1 x icon (though I'll probably make a few) as a Weekend Challenge reward, and I owe 100 written words on a WIP as a Weekend Challenge reward as well. If I get all of these done, I'm calling this challenge done, but I hope to also get at least 500 extra words on a written WIP, though I haven't decided which one yet!

What do you plan to work on? What goals have you set yourself? Do you want to check in once a week with how you're doing? Let me know here!

And... we're off! Let's be creative out there! ;-)
