Good morning all :D Since I've been here before I'll introduce myself lol I'm Don :D I'm in Australia and that's why I say good morning when it's night time for everyone else :D

This weekend I need to get a move on with my smallvillebbang and cwbigbang fics. There are several WIPs that need my attention sooner or later and I want to do at least one of my au_bingo fics. Plus I should probably post my het_bigbang fic, but I want to go back through it first :D I'm totally excited for fic_rush, I'm hoping it will get me out of my no writing slump :D

Plus I'm wearing a purple belt, so yay extra points for me :D

[lolmac]

Yay purple belt! And good luck with busting the slump!

[glinda-penguin.livejournal.com]

Yay for fic_rush! I'm writing a ficathon piece this weekend so femslahy dr who fic ahoy! I'm also going to bed in a minute as its 1am here...




Also I'm in the company of a large stuffed penguin wearing a purple cloche hat...

[lolmac]

Yay purple hat! And we shall see you in the morning. Morning somewhere, anyway!

[sid]

Hello, I'm Sid and I have swirly purple paisley on my blouse! (I have forgotten why this is important, however, being elderly in the brainpan...)

I got a jumpstart! I wrote 83 words while I waited for this post to come up. I also made a list of what I plan to work on:

Aubreyad kinkmeme fill

Spook Me SG-1 Jack/Daniel werewolf ficlet due Wed.

Stargate Five Things due Mon.

Edit Jack/Daniel story Transits of the Moon (which has been abandoned and neglected for quite some time.)

[lolmac]

Woohoo!

The purple is because thisbluespirit asked if the round was going to be in my honour, since my anniversary was yesterday and my birthday is Monday, and if we'd all wear purple accordingly. I thought that was a grand idea.

[sid]

I knew I'd read somewhere recently about purple, but I srsly could not remember where! :-D

(and yet subconsciously I wore it)

[lolmac]

*rubs hands in glee*

Brainwashing successful!!

[synnerxx.livejournal.com]

Yay! Another round! I'm Chloe and I was in the last round of fic_rush and, hey! I'm still writing all the bigbangs! XD

This weekend I need to finish horrorbigbang, kink_bigbang and polybigbang. :D

And work on all my bingo cards.

[sid]

So, no pressure, then. *g*

[synnerxx.livejournal.com]

None at all. XD

[lolmac]

You could write a kinky poly horror story and cover all three at once.

I've met some kinky poly horror stories, so it wouldn't even have to be a stretch.

[synnerxx.livejournal.com]

Well, the way horrorbigbang is going, it's definitely kinky, poly, and horror. XD

I so would if I could. XD

Hi, I'm elfy, and I can currently see a purple game cube controller from where I'm sitting on my parent's couch (bonus points woo!!!). I (somewhat) did last month's fic_rush, but I'm hoping to do much better this time now that I will have some peace and quiet on Saturday and Sunday. Tonight though, less peace and quiet, more siblings and crazy.

What I hope to be working on:

A Criminal Minds fic that I started a few months ago and have recently dusted off and started working on again.

My last letter for parrish_lorne Alphabet Soup.

And getting my (detailed, scene by scene) outline ready for Naked Nano: http://nakednano.wordpress.com/

If I get all caught up on that, I can start working on my 100k Supernova again, although I don't really expect to dig into that until after NaNo finishes.

I also have an angst bingo card, but i don't expect to get to that until after Supernova, lol!

Good luck everyone.

[lolmac]

Best of luck!! The purple game cube totally counts.

[welfycat.livejournal.com]

:D Yay!

Thanks, best of luck to you as well.

[lolmac]

Thanks! I'm going to try to catch up with some overdue beta notes and memes, and then try to ease myself back into actual writing.

[carodee.livejournal.com]

Howdy! *waves* I did fic_rush a couple months ago.

This month I'm working on an anonymous fic exchange so I can't talk about my project in detail, but I've been meh about writing for a while now. The only idea that's gelled is a single scene with no plot. So I'm hoping to write the scene and if it's any good then add plot handwavium to resemble a finished story. *g* Or if it sucks, hopefully my mind will feel done with that idea and gift me with a better plotbunny.

Right. Here goes. Good luck to everyone here!

[sid]

Plot handwavium! I'll take a gallon of that, please! :-D

[lolmac]

Best of luck! Sometimes I've jumped into an orphan scene and found that, once built, it was a nice platform for the next step. Or leap. Or bucket of handwavium.

[ozsaur.livejournal.com]

Well, fancy meeting you here! I won't be officially starting until tomorrow morning, early. But it's good to see you here. Good luck!

[carodee.livejournal.com]

Awesome that you're playing too and thank you. Have a wonderful night's sleep and I'll see you in the morning.

Hello all! This month I'll be working on a research report and maybe a bit of fic.

I'm in the company of an extremely disgruntled cat.

[lolmac]

Best of luck with the writing! Also with the cat. Is it purple?

[sid]

Maybe that's why it's disgruntled?

or cobalt

[lolmac]

The Hydrogen Dog and the Cobalt Cat
Side by side in the armory sat.
Nobody thought about fusion or fission;
Everyone spoke of their peacetime mission.
Till somebody came and opened the door
And there they were, in a neutron fog,
The Codrogen Cat and the Hybalt Dog;
They mushroomed up with a terrible roar --
And nobody never was there, no more.

Re: or cobalt

[clocketpatch]

That poem is wonderful! Where is it from?

The cat is disgruntled after having a brush with death at the vets (she's fine now, but glaring at everyone)

[lolmac]

It's from a delicious little book titled The Space Child's Mother Goose.

Little Jack Horner
Sits in a corner
Extracting cube roots to infinity:
An assignment for boys
That will minimise noise
And produce a more peaceful vicinity.

Hello! I'm new! I was doing great until I got derailed on my writing with a ton of distractions. I've cleared the decks for this Saturday and Sunday to work on witchesbigbang and bigbangbuffet. I have an awesome idea for WBB, and I'll be dong a ton of research in the late 1940s, 1948 specifically, and film noir and architecture and... lots of stuff. I'll also be working out the plot, outlining if necessary, and doing as much of the groundwork for the story as possible.

I've got a couple of old WIPs that can work for BBB and I'll be taking a break from the other stuff with that, as well as with anything that comes up for my SGA Santa story.

Whew! Lot of work ahead of me. I'll be starting in the morning.

And there is a purple notebook that lives on the corner of my desk. *g*

[sid]

I hope you noticed I'm going to be working on my Spook Me werewolf story! :-D

[ozsaur.livejournal.com]

Yay!!! Happy to see that! I can't wait to read it! I am seriously looking forward to spook_me.

[lolmac]

Hurrah! Welcome! We'll be here for the next 48 hours, so drop in whenever you can. We'll save a plate of alien fish for you.

[ozsaur.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I just really want to get back into writing mode. I signed up for a ton of challenges for the end of the year, and I need to get some momentum on them.

Alien fish? Um... thanks? *g*

[justice-turtle.livejournal.com]

(We have a lot of running in-jokes that contribute to the general crackiness of the comm. Alien fish and quantum ninja penguins are some of the oldest still standing. I'm not exactly sure how they started, even though I was there at the time... XD)

Yay writing!

Oh, btw, the glowsticks are a writing tool. You start one glowing and write till it stops. (Works better with real ones than virtual ones. *g*)

[lolmac]

You can always feed the alien fish to the ninja penguins.

Later on, there might be writerly pasta, which nourishes the creativity.

I hope you were warned about the high levels of crackiness in this comm.

[justice-turtle.livejournal.com]

Welcome, new person! :D *offers purple glowstick*

[ozsaur.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :::waves glowstick:::

*g*

I'm on a commercial break from SPN, but I'm Laurie and I've got a couple of posts to write for The Sentinel big bang, and I've got to finish editing said Big Bang (I did two, but one isn't fully edited yet) and if I have time, I've got an epic WIP to work on.

Laurie

[ozsaur.livejournal.com]

I am really looking forward to The Sentinel Big Bang! Good luck with the editing!

Here I am, late for the party once again. :-\ It is my hope to get a lot done this weekend as I have a fandom_grammar thingee due and I really want to get a big portion of my latest big bang story done. But then again, my sister came over for the weekend and the kids want to go to a local community Halloween event that really is a lot of fun, and... *sigh* I'll be happy if I get the article done.

And purple hmmm?? Let's see, there's a certain young lady next to me who seems to be hell-bent on aggravating me to death and is wearing a purple shirt. Oh and I have a purple pen - I LOVE purple ink okay? :) S I think I'm in the clear!

[lolmac]

Yup, you get points for those. Feel free to drop in on the most recent hourly post any time you're able to! We'll be here.

[justice-turtle.livejournal.com]

I do not own any purple clothes, and I don't think there's even anything purple in the room. But I have a purple theme on my computer desktop at the moment (it looked good with the various NaNo calendar wallpapers I found). Do I get points? :-)

(Heck, I don't even have a purple icon. *wanders off looking*)
