I actually made it for the first hour this time. Hooray!

I'm not really sure what I'll be working on. I've got one Big Bang to finish rewriting, One big Bang to send off to the beta, One Big Bang to edit after getting it back from the beta.

And 2 and 1/2 Big Bangs left to write by the end of the Month. And 25 pages of comic left to write for Nanomango.

Oh, and I just started at a new job today.

HEY! *TACKLES*

I'm with you. I've only edited 2 chapters out of 8. ;O; help me?

[insertcode11.livejournal.com]

Holding hands would definitely make me feel better! D: And maybe chocolate. I have M&Ms?

What would make me feel even better is if I were the Trickster and I could just snap my fingers and it'd be done.

I'm HERE! I'm up in here and turning off Ghost Adventures since I've already seen this episode and I'm gonna GET SOME WRITING DONE! Working on my original novel. Smutty romance w/witches and dead heroes and angry werewolves.

Boo! ;-) *pops in*

Hi, people who may appear while I am writing this comment!

* I am not new here. In fact I recruited Beth (aka lolmac, bwahaha.

* I thought I was going to be working on a gen Stargate SG-1 story for sg1friendathon (prompt claiming still open, /shameless promotion of a comm I do not run). But I watched six discs of Deep Space Nine back-to-back and then somebody sort of dared me to write mirrorverse Odo/Quark D/s? ...I REALLY DO NOT EVEN. for the newbies, I am the gennest of gen fans!

Um - point is, I never know WHAT I'm going to be working on here. XD

* I heard about the comm through dbskyler, a looong time ago in a galaxy far far away *clearly I am well and truly overdosed on crack sci-fi with adorably ugly aliens in it. I shall regret everything I say here IN THE MORNING*.

* My favourite species of penguin is Galapagos, since they're the only ones I'm sure I've seen in person (they have them at the zoo). I may also have seen a puffin once. Puffins are cool cute and also cool. ;-)

Curu, do not try to write D/s. Not even on a dare.

[sid]

D/s can be written with any sexxing. That would make it a tad bit more gen-ish! :-D

Hi everyone :D

I have heaps of things to write but I don't know where to start. It's awful :( There's 3 WIPs, 2 big bangs, an auction fic that I need to do and multi media bingo challenge for scifiland. Then there are the millions of plot bunnies that are running around in my head.

BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO START :(

[isdon-isgood9.livejournal.com]

And fairy :D

[ienablu.livejournal.com]

Hello! I'm Al, or Ien, whichever you prefer. And I totally forgot that the 8PM starting time is in a different time zone, so I'm feeling a bit frantic, which I think is the perfect way to start a writing fest. (No sarcasm intended.)

I'm rotating between three stories at the moment, all Supernatural, two Adam-centric (with a healthy heaping of Jo), one Atropos-centric (set in 3.11, tentatively titled "go screw yourself, that's what I think").

In all honesty, I have no idea how I found this comm. (I want to say I was surfing a friends profile page, but I'm not friends with anyone in this com...) It just had a !!! note next to it, and when I saw what it was, it seemed relevant to my interests, so I joined. /cool story bro

And my favorite species of penguins are the singing and dancing ones from Mary Poppins. Which I would provide links to, but I want to make it at least half an hour before I get distracted by YouTube.

[curuchamion.livejournal.com]

*headslap* I TOTALLY FORGOT THE MARY POPPINS PENGUINS.

(and I am going home right now, because when I devolve into capslock the results are Not Good. G'night all!)

[ienablu.livejournal.com]

How could you forget about the Mary Poppin penguins? They are the best. (They sing! And dance!)

(May singing and dancing penguins serenade you to sleep.)

[lolmac]

Wow. You've successfully become evil twins! Cool!

[ienablu.livejournal.com]

Why thank you!

It involves a lot of her snarking at the Trickster and grumbling about having to kill the Winchesters over and over again, can't they just stay dead for once? Wait no she didn't mean that--

[lolmac]

Hurrah and welcome! In case you hadn't already noticed, we're a little bit crazy here, but that's only at the beginning.

Towards the end, we're a whole lot crazy.

How it works, if you hadn't already absorbed it all: there will be an hourly post for the next 48 hours. Drop in or out as you choose, post about your progress, or whinge about the lack thereof. Sometimes people run into snags and ask for help, and get it. Sometimes people run into savage man-eating alien fish and we never hear from them again, except for small wails of anguish devolving into bubbles.

Um. At the end of the weekend, there's a wrap-up post for the survivors anyone who participated.

[ienablu.livejournal.com]

Towards the end, we're a whole lot crazy.
I look forward to it.

How common is it to run into the savage man-eating alien fish, and is there any way to calm them so I don't get too distracted from writing?

[curuchamion.livejournal.com]

I believe the first time they were introduced, somebody threw crystallized Doctor to them.

(...why am I still here? *goes home, really*)

[insertcode11.livejournal.com]

Oh interesting stuff! And look at Adam's baby face in your icon!!! *pinches his cheeks*

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Hello fic_rush! I'm here, except I need to go out and run an errand, during which time I will not be here. But then I will be back, and here again!

(For those of you new to fic_rush, such goes the weekend!)

I will be working on a help_japan Man from U.N.C.L.E. fic for curuchamion. My favorite species of penguin is Alien Fish-Eating Ninja Penguin.

[lolmac]

Why, I do believe that's one of my all-time favourite species of penguins also!

I'm also partial to Phase-Shifting Temporally Unstable Glowstick-Wielding Penguins.

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Those are good, too. :D

(*forces self to stop eating* Vegans/vegetarians/teetotalers look away! Crockpot spareribs with Bush's Baked Beans, onion, brown sugar and beer. *dies happy*)

Writing? Hey, there's a concept! And here's my to-do list:

one Five Things for sg1_five_things
one Cliche challenge prompt for getyourwordsout
one Jack/Daniel prompt for jd_ficathon
one Bingo square for kink_bingo
finish Jack/Daniel fic 'Transits of the Moon'

So I need to choose a prompt for Five Things, choose a Cliche, choose a J/D prompt, decide which bingo I'm aiming for, write all those things and finish an oh-so-close to being done story that's been hanging out on my hard drive forever.

Easy peasy, yes? :-)

[lolmac]

Yum for dinner! And for all that lovely writing, because I know you'll get it all done this weekend and then we get to read it, bwaha.

[sid]

Bwahahaha. Wait, why am I laughing evilly?

And where is Hour 2, pray tell?

[curuchamion.livejournal.com]

I was just wondering... ;-)

[lolmac]

It's up now. I was trying to get something to eat.

[sid]

I suppose that's allowed (especially since I taunted you with my yummy supper.)

[insertcode11.livejournal.com]

Heeeyyyyy! *beams* I'm not new here but I wasn't around much in the last round or two.

Now I'll be beta'ing a fic for someone and then after that I'll be chipping away at editing my 270K big bang. :'D

My favorite species of penguin are the ones that don't distract me from writing/editing! *gives penguins a stern look*

[ienablu.livejournal.com]

I'll be chipping away at editing my 270K big bang.

...I am in awe of your writing prowess, and am terrified at the very thought of editing something that long.

[insertcode11.livejournal.com]

*WIBBLES* I'm terrified too. ;_;

But thanks for the compliment! It's rapidly falling from the 270K mark because goodbye cumbersome, needlessly long sentences! :D

I just got in from watching Midnight in Paris, which is a fantasy for writers (I won't spoil it, but really!) So now I am inspired by the combined might of the Americans in Paris in the '20s.

It totally counts as research because I was there with my writing accountabilibuddy.

[lothithil.livejournal.com]

Hi, I'm Lothithil, and I'll be modding for the first time this fic_rush. I'll be happy if I can manage to write anything at all. My goal is make a drabble for each of the hours that I am on duty.

My fav Penguins are the four psychotic ones from 'Madagascar', and of them, I like Rico the most, because he reminds me of Illya Kuryakin.

[lolmac]

GLOMPS

Lothi drabbles!!!! Want!!!!

If you need any prompts or anything, I'll be delighted to oblige!
