If You Set Other Goals (a specific scene, adding some angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever) Are You Progressing? Transition scenes are a pain! Still trying to connect two scenes since I jumped ahead while the muse was cooperating.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.) Nothing really right now, but I'm sure I'll be panic-flailing soon enough! :D

If You Set Other Goals (a specific scene, adding some angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever) Are You Progressing? more progress than I thought for today
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)
At some point, I need to sit down and figure out the story beats - make sure they are on track. Happy with what I've managed this weekend.

TOTAL WORDS SO FAR:
Projects Worked On: Uh, this fic?
If You Set Other Goals (a specific scene, adding some angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever) Are You Progressing? At a snail's pace. Actually, a snail that is half asleep.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.) Not really. I already shared.

If You Set Other Goals (a specific scene, adding some angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever) Are You Progressing? I did a huge chunk of writing on the BB fic last weekend and I'm hoping to get another big chunk done this week.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.) Too soon for panic. That'll come later. LOL!

TOTAL WORDS SO FAR: new for word war: 1k+ [full story as of start: 56,392 and current: 57,573]
Projects Worked On: 1 = For Science (fandom: The 4400)
Other Goals (outline the ending) Are You Progressing? I don't usually bother with outlines, but as I near the wrap-up-all-the-loose-plot-threads stage, I think I need at least a rough summary of the ending so I don't forget something critical.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.) ??? All of the above. I just realized I need to re-watch the last season of the show if I have a chance of tying this all together properly because there are too many specific details that I can't remember.

And consider this a combo flail-butt-kick-pep-talk! You got this!! Get to work! *flailing*

If You Set Other Goals (a specific scene, adding some angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever) Are You Progressing? I only saw this post today (Monday) so I haven't gotten anything done yet, but my plan is to get some writing done during work breaks and set aside an hour tonight to work on it.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.) Pep talks are always good!

Good luck with your writing! Sounds like you've got a good plan in place!

Projects Worked On: The Right Thing
If You Set Other Goals (a specific scene, adding some angst/fluff, reach a certain plot point, whatever) Are You Progressing?
1. Re-visit the "feelings/explicit" part of the story
2. Make a new list of scenes that belong to this part
3. Write at least 2 of the following scenes: waking up, fighting, shower.
Anything To Share (flailing, requests for butt-kicking, pep-talks, snippets, etc.)
I got suddenly re-excited about the explicit sub-plot of my story, while trying to find something to send as snippets. So I've decided to abandon the attempts to resolve the actual plot for now, and write those! :)))
