What's your WIP? (could include title, fan or original fiction, characters, themes, genre, summary, current wordcount, why you're writing it, etc)

Two projects I'm really focused on, and a one shot on the back burner that I really want done.

1)A Good Run for Your Money (Transformers AU)

2) The Victors Spoils (Transformers AU)

Back Burner: Check Mate (Transformers One Shot)

What do you need to do to get it finished?

A Good Run For Your Money I have planned out in my head. Maybe just some reassurances that my OCs aren't Mary Sue??

Victors Spoils I'm having trouble writing the characters I'm using for chapter 3, I don't often write with Shrapnel, Kickback and Moonracer.

Any stumbling blocks? (please say whether or not you're happy for people to offer advice)Happy with advice for sure ( ... )

Hey! Thanks for joining us <3

I'll put up a post soon for people to request and give more in-depth support/advice. I doubt your OCs are anything but awesome :)

What's your WIP? (could include title, fan or original fiction, characters, themes, genre, summary, current wordcount, why you're writing it, etc)

Two things: First, an original scifi story I wrote last year that I still need to edit (and hopefully sometime publish). About 80+ pages in Word, but that's without the scenes I've thought up that need to be added.

Second, more of my TF Fairytales. I've got about three in the works right now (talk about more than I can chew), and I really do want to finish them.

What do you need to do to get it finished?

As for the first, someone to read it, then tell me what they think of my ideas for extra plot and edits.

Actually, I need pretty much the same thing for both. For the TF Fairytales, I just need someone to read, edit, and most importantly, poke with a sharp stick.

Any stumbling blocks? (please say whether or not you're happy for people to offer advice)Stumbling blocks? Mainly me being lazy previously and somehow losing all the bunnies. Or, well, the ones with fangs that make me ( ... )

I write original SF and fantasy and would be more than happy to beta read your original SF story if you're still looking for someone to read. (I'd offer to read the fanfic, too, but alas, I'm not familiar with all TF incarnations.)

What's your WIP?

- Fanfic, Tranformers G1, self-indulgent multichapter story (working title)

- Fanfic, Tranformers G1, OTP, Yog Sothoth (working title)

What do you need to do to get it finished?

I hope I don’t need more than another 11k for the self-indulgent multichapter story, and another 4k for the OTP Yog Sothoth fic. :)

Any stumbling blocks? (please say whether or not you're happy for people to offer advice) No blocks with these stories so far, I just keep getting distracted by other flashfics…

Would you like to be poked repeatedly with a sharp stick until you finish? (If so, please specify how much poking you would like and how sharp you want the stick to be, and how you'd like your buddy to contact you.)
Yes, being poked would be great. :) Maybe once or twice a week, and I happy with either annoying poking and angry yelling, or nice encouragement. :)
Best contact would be via twitter ( @naboru), or e-mail: naboru.narluin[at]gmail.com

Do you have any fortnightly goals?I’m keeping my fortnightly goals low, because I’m not ( ... )

Since I could finish one of the WIPs, I want to sign-up with something new, or rather update the WIPs and the goals. :)

What's your WIP? (could include title, fan or original fiction, characters, themes, genre, summary, current wordcount, why you're writing it, etc)
Still:
- Fanfic, Tranformers G1, OTP, Yog Sothoth (working title)

And the new one:
- Fanfic, Tranformers G1, Combaticon-centrc, Crack in the Mirror

What do you need to do to get it finished?
I need 3 more chapter of CitM, and then I'm hopefully done. I hope it's less than 12k...

Do you have any fortnightly goals?
Still 1.5k, OR 2 old chapters of CitM re-read and edited :)

I need this group for sure! georgeizzie1 January 20 2014, 21:05:21 UTC
What's your WIP? A collection of 100 drabbles for the One Life to Live fandom.
What do you need to do to get it finished? Hmm, enthusiasm! lol But honestly there are 83 left to go and that feels like a daunting task!
Any stumbling blocks? (please say whether or not you're happy for people to offer advice) I have ADHD, seriously. It's hard for me to sit still and work on one thing for a long period of time. But I really want to finish this and yes, I'd love advice.
Would you like to be poked repeatedly with a sharp stick until you finish? (If so, please specify how much poking you would like and how sharp you want the stick to be, and how you'd like your buddy to contact you.) A sharp stick works. My buddy needs to hold me accountable! My goal is to write 4-5 parts a week until it's done. I need someone to poke me until I do it. They can contact me via email (carlocheerleader@gmail.com)
Do you have any fortnightly goals? 4 to 5 a week!
Would you like me to record these under a cut on the fortnightly check-in post for extra motivation? ( ... )
