I just realized that this starts in fifteen minutes, as I'm in EST and it's 7:46 PM here. So I guess I'm lucky that I'm not busy right now. ^^

I'm planning to put more words into a Supernatural Gabriel/Castiel fic I've got as a WIP. And if I finish it / burn out I'll switch to a different SPN fic I have in progress. :D

Also I'm Zekkass, and I'm currently in the SPN fandom up to my ears. I'm friendly, though, and willing to discuss other fandom / original stuffs. :D

Yeah, timezones. Good that works out nicely for you, though. :)

Welcome to Fic Rush!

'Ello, I'm Pitry and apart from 3 silly ficlets I have not written anything proper in the past month.

My aims: I have a challenge for the wintercompanion thingie, afterwards.... trying to finish one of the fics I started last time. :D

That website you guys link in your FAQ is handy, though.

Thank you!

Hey check it out, I'm not going first this time.

As usual, I have no idea what I'm writing. I really want to do either Final Fantasy VIII (am recently obsessed with Squall's Dead) or The Elder Scrolls, only I have giant projects for both of them and never know where to start.

People are coming over this evening so I might not get a lot written at first anyway. I guess I can use that time to plan what to work on, since that's a lot easier to do with interruptions.

I'm sure you'll be astonished to hear that I'm writing a MacGyver novel. Noooo! The same novel, but at least it's a different chapter again.

I've been simultaneously working on chapters 13 and 14, because that's the end of the book, and I have to wrap everything up and not miss any loose ends. My primary goal for the weekend is to finish Chapter 13 -- I'm only about one or two thousande words short of that goal. After that, there's a whole lot of chapter 14 to do.

And if I can't get anywhere with that, I also have to get my crazy ideas for the Wheaton/Scalzi fanfic contest boiled down to no more than 2000 words.

And I have other commitments this evening, so I can't even start till tomorrow. Grump. Why did I decide to have a life as well as having writing goals? So inconvenient.

Hey, don't knock silly ficlets. Silly ficlets are awesome.

You see how participating in Fic Rush once forces you to come back next time? :)

[pitry.livejournal.com]

Yeah, planning is always the best part. *angelic smile*
If all my plans could magically transform into fics... sigh

I think I'm going to sleep now, though. I'm completely and utterly knackered. :( should have gone to sleep about two hours ago but - not quite sure what I did though. That's the worst bit. My time simply eats itself. HELP HELP! :D

Have a fun time planning!

[studyofrunning.livejournal.com]

I had no idea you were into MacGyver.

So you might finish a novel this weekend? Awesome.

At least you have some good crazy ideas for that fic. :P See you tomorrow, then.

Another newbie here! I'm going to start by (hopefully) finishing up a fic I'm writing for where_no_woman's first anniversary ficathon, featuring Kira from Deep Space Nine. If by some stretch of the imagination I manage to finish that, I'll be working on fic for startrekbigbang - DS9 again.

Can't wait to see what everyone's working on!

[studyofrunning.livejournal.com]

IKR? We'd all be crazy-prolific.

Thanks. See you when you get back!

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Yay, I'm glad this worked out for you so well, timing-wise! :D

[pitry.livejournal.com]

It's an addiction! Addiction I say! :P

[isdon-isgood9.livejournal.com]

Hi, I'm Don and this is my first time fic rushing, so hopefully everything goes well.

My aims are to finish the second part to a WIP I have going for veronica mars at the moment and when I've finished that either start the next part or work on the many other fics I've started and then stopped.

[studyofrunning.livejournal.com]

Hey, welcome to Fic Rush!

That comm looks awesome. If I spend this weekend reading Trek fic instead of writing, I will know who to blame. :P

[zekkass.livejournal.com]

It did! The trick now is getting myself to actually put words down in the right order for the right fic. >.>

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

This MacGyver fan is cheering you on heartily. :D See you around tomorrow!

[lolmac]

Woohoo! More Mac fans!

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

I'm super-impressed by the quality of fic at where_no_woman - but it can definitely act as a time-suck once you start reading, so beware! ;)

[studyofrunning.livejournal.com]

This is the weekend for newbies, apparently. Welcome aboard!

I know all about starting new fics and then stopping. *guilty look* Good luck with those WIPs!

[curuchamion.livejournal.com]

Ooh, nearly finished? *eager face*

[lolmac]

Welcome to the 'Rush! This comm is great, wonderful people here! I wouldn't be nearly as far along in Reverb without it.

[studyofrunning.livejournal.com]

At some point, the Mac and Who fans here are gonna have to have some sort of epic battle for control of the comm. With action sequences and out-dated special effects and more action sequences.

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm really excited to finally get a chance to participate, even if I likely won't be around to cross the finish line on Sunday.

[lolmac]

Well, not quite. I'm hoping to finish the next to the last chapter, which will put me very close. There will undoubtedly be an epilogue, too. And probably a Deleted Scene.

And, of course, there's the Scalzorc and the Unicorn Pegasus Kitten as potential distraction.
