Comments

[trobadora]

This month has been a complete loss for me, writing-wise (as you've probably figured from my failure to check in), but I did keep up with the alibi sentences at least. Here's hoping for next month!

[sylvanwitch]

I’m so sorry it’s been a difficult month for you, and I hope April brings you showers of new words. :-). Go, you, for keeping up with alibi sentences!

[ysilme]

I'm so sorry to hear, although keeping up with alibi sentences is no mean feat, congrats for that! *hugs*
But I'm not sure, is this also a belated check-in for all the missed days? Alibi sentences totally count and I'm more than happy to put you in! ♥

[china_shop]

Thank you both SO MUCH for hosting! It's been lovely as always to check in with you both and see how you've been doing. <3 <3 <3

*sends dietarily appropriate muffins and flowers* <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you kindly, hon! It is always such a pleasure to spend time with you here!

[ysilme]

Thank YOU for participating, it's been lovely as always! ♥♥♥ *hugs* *munches muffins* ^^

[badly_knitted]

Thank you both so much for hosting this month, it's been such fun!

March 31st - 1013 words, a 1k challenge fic that I'm really pleased with, and minor edits to a fic for posting.

[sylvanwitch]

How wonderful! You’re on a roll! May April bring you many more adventures in writing! It has been a total joy to talk writing (and home heating *grins*) with you here!

[yhlee]

Thank you both for hosting this month, it's been lovely!

ysilme, congrats on the finished story, and sylvanwitch, I hope you have a great break!

Day 30: alibi sentence lol.
Day 31: alibi sentence lol.

(I decided to hare off to make an April Fool's thing as a break haha.)

I have a welcome post up for April. :3

[sylvanwitch]

YAY for April Fool's things! (It's my least favorite holiday, so I appreciate when something good comes of it. :-) YAY for alibi sentences!

And THANK YOU! I'm hoping it will be restful and full of words. :-)

ETA: ALSO, thank you for offering to host for this month! I'm looking forward to spending time with you there!

[sanguinity]

Thank you so much for hosting us this month!

[sylvanwitch]

You are so welcome!

YAY for pages of notes! I hope they turn into something lovely!

[the_siobhan]

I actually wrote a whole paragraph on a short story that has been languishing for months! Victory!

Thank you for everything you do to keep this going.

[sylvanwitch]

That IS a victory! YAY! *\o/*

You're SO welcome! It's our pleasure, truly.

[vendettadays]

Yay for finishing your story and all the words written this month; and also being official on Easter break! Thank you both for hosting this month and providing all the encouraging words on the days I was able to check in :D

Day 31 - 40 words on the last day of March. I expected this month to be very busy in RL so had lowered my target word count. I'm shy by a thousand-ish words, but I'm still happy with the progress i made. Here's to more words next in April!

[sylvanwitch]

You are SO welcome! It was lovely to have you with us. :-)

That is EXCELLENT progress for a busy month! YAY! Go, you!

[amedia]

How is it the end of the month already???

I left comments on two fics on AO3 today! Hoping to do more writing over the weekend.

[sylvanwitch]

I know, right? YAY for comments and for more to do and for all the words you hope to write in the coming days!

[chanter1944]

100+ words for day 31 (I haven't been tracking word count, just working on things here and there).

Thank you both for hosting! :)

[sylvanwitch]

You're so welcome!

YAY for words! YAY for writing! Just YAY! :-)

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks for hosting. Still sick but my brain didn't care. it was a good day 1101 words on a The Owl House fic (now I'm sad I didn't write 10 more words...)

and another 800 one the novel

[sylvanwitch]

That IS a good day! Woooo-hoooo! SO MANY WORDS!

I hope you feel better soon.

Also, you are always welcome here, as you know. :-)

[regshoe]

Hooray! Thank you both for hosting this month. It's been a good month for me—I've added 10,300 words to the longfic and I'm happy with the progress made.

Day 31: 900 words.

[sylvanwitch]

You're very welcome!

And WOOOOO-HOOOOO! Look at that word count! YAY! *\o/*

[yasaman]

Day 31: 600 words on the main WIP, and jotted down a quick note for a future scene in the side WIP.

Thanks for hosting this month!

[sylvanwitch]

You are most welcome!

YAY for yet more words--you've written SO MANY this month! YAY!

[luzula]

Wrote 400 words of longfic, total wordcount 134,900. I also finished a chapter, edited it, and sent to beta! \o/

Looking back over the month, I didn't set a goal because of stress. But I ended up adding 8,600 words to my longfic and also writing an exchange fic, so I'm happy with that.

Thanks so much for doing the work of hosting, both of you! <3 <3

[sylvanwitch]

YAY for finishing a chapter, editing it, and sending it off! That's amazing!

LOOK at that overall word count for the month, too! Wow! YAY!

You are so welcome here, always. :-)

[carenejeans]

Day 31: Words were written. By me, even! \o/

Thank you both for hosting! It's always fun with the zwei hexen at the helm. 8-)

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you so much! That means a lot! :-)

Also, YAY for words written by YOU! You are awesome and so are your words!

[lferion]

31 March -- poking at another riddle, did a final pass on a B2MEM ficlet including getting a sanity-check, and posted it.

[sylvanwitch]

I misread that as "sainty-check" and was trying to figure out which icon you set it before for intercession. *grins*

YAY for poking and final passes and posting!

[ljm]

Day 29: 4 alibi sentences
Day 30: 3 alibi sentences
Day 31:2 alibi sentences

Thank you for all the encouragement this March!

[sylvanwitch]

You are SO welcome!

YAY for all those alibi sentences! Words came into the world because of you! :-)

[silveradept]

Checking in for Days 29-31, not quite as much progress as I had hoped to achieve, but I did make progress.

[sylvanwitch]

Good for you for making progress when the world was conspiring to prevent it! I’m glad you were able to keep wording, even if it wasn’t what you’d hoped. :-)

[kate]

Oh no - I forgot to check in! I did get a few words of journaling but no fic words on the 31st.

[ysilme]

Go you for words wording! *\O/* Journaling is part of the writing process, too, and sometimes even helps with the current WIP or project. And no worries, the final tally isn't posted yet; I'm always waiting a day or two more for everybody to catch up.
