Any more Weekend Challenge volunteers?

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

I'm currently working on the Weekend Challenge schedule for Jan-June 2021, and there are six of us taking turns running this challenge at the moment, as follows:

thatwasjustadream = DREAMY
kitmerlot1213 = KIT
haldoor = HALDOOR
erinm_4600 = ERIN
agdhani = AGDHANI
flipflop_diva = DIVA

Kit only wants to do two weekends, and Diva will be leaving us from June, so only four of us will carry on (although did you want more in the 2nd half of the year, Kit?). I have a draft schedule already - and we'll cope with it, I have no doubt - but just wanted to give anyone else the chance to join us before I post it, so we can spread out the love!

Don't be shy; it's not hard, and we can help guide you if you're not sure! Check out the previous Weekend Challenge posts if you need help to decide if it's something you can manage; you should get some idea of what it involves from them.

Please pop in a comment here before this weekend is over if you feel like giving it a go - as many or as few weekends as you'd like (those who have already volunteered will do about 5 weekends each between Jan 1st and July 1st - except Kit - but with some additional help, the max you'd be looking at would be 3 or 4 weekends between those dates).

Oh, and flipflop_diva, you're up for this weekend - this is your reminder! You probably have it under control, but let me know if you have any issues or need me to take over for any reason! ♥

Lemme take a look this weekend? I might be able to do some between spring and summer sumester and then june and july. But since I'm new... I'd like to look at things first.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

No worries - have a look and then get back to me with a firmer idea of what you'd like to take on - even one would be a help! ;-) Oh, and thank you!

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

Did I ever get back to you? I think I agreed to do one in Summer or something? (Still not entirely sure what... but something.)

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Yes, you agreed to do a couple for us:
14-May-21 to 16-May-21 and 2-Jul-21 to 4-Jul-21

So your first one is coming up in a couple of weeks! Put them in your calendar now, but let me know if you want a reminder on your weeks, as I usually do that for anyone who needs it. ;-)

If you want to check the whole schedule, it's here (https://1-million-words.livejournal.com/3361800.html), and takes us up to the end of June. ;-)

I've got it! Hopefully I did okay with the first one. It's now sticky noted to my wall. And I'm thinking of ideas for number 2.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

You did great with your first one! Thank you for volunteering, and I'm glad you're getting ideas for number two! I'll hold off on the reminder, so thanks for that!

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

Aaaw thank you! I had fun. No worries. I will probably need the reminder... but I have July.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Great! I'll ask for volunteers for the 2nd half of the year come the end of June, but as you've got the first one in July, that's all good. ;-)

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

I have it... I'm trying to think of something more unique than 4th of July.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

No worries! How about Winter in July? In NZ not only is it winter, but we don't celebrate American Independence! ;-P LOL! Just a thought though... I'm sure you'll find something you're happy with! ;-)

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

Loved that idea... did holidays, but same idea.

[cmk418]

I'm in. Didn't see a post for this before.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Ah! I know you've been a regular helper, so I did wonder! I'll pop you back in the schedule! Thanks!

[goneahead]

I can help May, June, July, October,November:)

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Brilliant, thanks! I'll add you into the current schedule for May & June (I'll ask again for the 2nd half of the year in about June). ;-)

[goneahead]

may and june — got it! thank you for doing this for us!!!!

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

While I'm here, I just wanted to remind you that your weekend challenge turn is coming this week! I'm sure you're already on it, but just in case you needed a reminder!

I'll be posting about volunteers for the 2nd half of the year shortly, too!

[kitmerlot1213.livejournal.com]

I can cover more weekends, maybe four?

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Alrighty - is that in the current half of the year, or did you mean in the 2nd half? I'll be asking for volunteers from July to Dec in June sometime. Happy to add you into the rotation a bit more this half-year if you want, though?

[kitmerlot1213.livejournal.com]

To be clear, I can cover four weekends in this current half of the year and I can cover four weekends in the next half of the year--I want to help more :)

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

OK! Thank you, that's brilliant! ;-)

[flipflop-diva.livejournal.com]

I'm good for this weekend!

I'm not sure if you're doing a schedule for the second half of the year yet, but I can probably do 2-3 toward the end of the year, like starting in October? I think that should be fine :)

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Awesome, thanks!

I'll try to keep that in mind! I'll be asking for volunteers for the July-Dec period in about June though, so keep an eye on the comm if you can, in case I forget! ;-)

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

Okay... yeah I can do a couple? Or help fill in? May to August is better for me.

Someone will just have to give me some points...

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Thanks! How about I add you in for one in May, and see how that goes? Then if you're good with that one, I can add a few more in the 2nd half of the year? I'm always here to help if you need pointers! ;-)

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

I will absolutely need help!

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

No worries - check out some of the recent ones others have done, and you can PM me with any problems or if you need any questions answered. It's pretty straightforward and in all honesty, not that many people fill them for rewards, although you'll always get a bunch of people wanting the prompts to use at their leisure! ;-)

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

I didn't offer rewards... I don't think anyway.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

That's ok. Sometimes people don't want one. You can always offer to add words to a WIP instead, as that's a win for everyone

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

I will absolutely offer that one. I suck at graphics, but I need LOTS of words.
