vangirlThis should have been posted tomorrow but I uh, forgot that 15 (not 16; 15) follows 14, apparently. >>;
Regardless: WRITERS, how are you doing? We're at the halfway point and you still have about six more weeks of writing ahead of you. Do you think you're going to make the finishline and have a complete draft by July 31st? If not, you can either make a note that you're dropping out here in this post, or send a PM tovangirl.
Something I've failed to do is ask: do you need betas or cheerleaders? Many people already found some on their own and there...are not enough betas/cheerleaders to have one for every writer. So please let me know if you will need one or if you've managed to find one on your own.
I've also had a lot of questions in regards to whether or not it's okay that your idea changed somewhere along the line, which is probably a typical issue people face when they set out to write a longer fic over the course of three months. To clear things up: it is okay if your idea changes along the way, so long as it's still for the same fandom you signed up to write. I'm not sure how easy it'll be to find artists and betas again if the fandom list got a complete makeover so I'm asking that you keep to the fandom you signed up for this round. If this turns out to be an issue, then things may be changed next round -- but we'll wait and see.
If there are any other issues, you can PMvangirl. I won't be able to reply to things very quickly this next few days but I'll try to get to you as soon as possible!
Good luck and happy writing!
