The first check-in post goes up on the 22nd.
At any point during the challenge, please feel free to do any of these things:
* Post your story/extract of your story/link to a google doc etc for feedback. Entries must be members locked. Prose goes under an lj-cut if you're not linking to it. Headers must be outside the LJ-cut, and clearly state original or fanfic (if fanfic, please use a standard fic header, if original please give genre), whether it's an extract or in full, any content advice (such as common triggers or squicks), and most importantly what kind of feedback you're after.
* Make a post asking for advice without posting an extract. Be specific about the kind of advice you're after.
* Make a post with links to writing advice that you've found helpful.
* Make a post asking for a beta reader. Be specific about what you'd like your beta to do (just a general read through, line edit, typo-spotting etc.).
* Make a post offering beta reading services. Be specific about the kinds of stories you'd like to help with.
* Make a post to say you've finished one of your WIPs.
* Make a post doing something else relevant to this community that I haven't included in this list. If it's geared towards helping people to finish their WIPs, it's relevant.
Any questions, leave a comment or send me a PM :)
I'm going to sort the buddy matching ASAP. I'll PM everyone involved and I'll make a post when I've sent out the PMs in case LJ email notifs aren't working as they should.
