Good luck with your writing today! If you had writing goals for February, you can tell us whether you reached them, if you want. It's been a pleasure to have you here!

zwei_hexen (run by sylvanwitch and ysilme) will host in March, so head over there tomorrow. I'll edit in the final tally on this post tomorrow.

Comments

[ysilme]

Thank you for hosting this month! I haven't been around as much and as regularly as I wanted to, but it's been really helpful to have the daily posts as the kind of lowest-grade-pressure I needed in the second half of this month. ;op

I wrote a lot of nonfic today so far; long private mail, blog post, and threw in an alibi sentence on a WIP for good measure.
I managed to finish my exchange story, and wrote about my usual word count of about 8k for it which is good as I'd feared I wouldn't reach even the minimum, if I finished at all. After that I failed at working on my major WIP as I'd intended, but at least worked some at the other intended, smaller, WIP, and fiddled around with a few other WIPs in preparation of the March event. So, overall I'm satisfied enough.

[luzula]

I'm glad it was helpful to you, even though you weren't around as much as you wanted to. Congratulations on finishing your exchange story! \o/

[regshoe]

Day 28: 600 words.

My main goal was to make progress on the Flight of the Heron ghost fic, 'although I won't aim to finish it as I have no idea how long it's going to be yet'. Well, that was accurate, as it's now over 13,000 words and will need at least another couple of thousand to tie everything up—I think it has gone very well! I also wanted to sign up for once_upon_fic and begin on my assignment, which I have done, if sketching ideas counts as a beginning. :D

A good writing month! And thank you very much for hosting, your posts and encouraging comments have been lovely <3

[luzula]

Yay for reaching your goals! And for setting up your goals vaguely enough to be accurate, too. : )

I'm glad the posts/comments have been helpful! : D

[luzula]

I wrote my 500 words as usual, with a good flow. Total word count 22,200.

My goal for February was to finish this Flight of the Heron WIP; I estimated that it would be 20K. Well, I haven't finished it, but that's because it will be more like 25K… but I'm quite happy with the month's writing.

[regshoe]

Well done, and that is indeed a good month's writing :D

[luzula]

It is! I feel so blessed to have had such a consistent writing streak since the beginning of 2020.

[china_shop]

Congrats on making such great progress! Yay you!

[luzula]

Thanks! : D

[sanguinity]

You're really close to finishing it! *bounces*

[luzula]

Ha ha, at least if it's not going to grow even longer than 25K. *g* But not much longer, I hope!

[chestnut_pod]

I did indeed reach my goal! Thank you for hosting this, it was wonderfully helpful.

[luzula]

Cool, I'm glad you reached your goal, and that the posts were helpful! \o/

[badly_knitted]

Thank you so much for hosting, it's ben great fun!

Feb 28th - 867 words. 4 double drabbles, and editing on 2 fics for posting.

[luzula]

You’re welcome! I felt that it was time to pay back. : )

And good work as always, you’re so productive!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks, I've done well so far this year. Managed to get quite a few older fics tidied up and posted =)

[china_shop]

28th: I made a few minor post-beta edits and a few notes for the fic I'm stuck on.

Thank you so much for hosting! It's been really great! *chocolates and a big bouquet of gratitude and flowers*

[luzula]

You're welcome, and good work writing! : D Mmmm, chocolate.

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you so much for hosting us this month--I've had a lovely time! You've been awesome!

On Day 28, I added 225 words to the latest short story, a ghost story I'm calling, for the time being, "Cherry's Ghosts."

[luzula]

You're welcome, and I also had a good time. <3

Congratulations on all the progress you made on your short stories!

[naraht]

28: More editing of synopsis. This is about as hard as the actual novel but I think it might be improving.

Thanks so much for hosting this month! It came along at the right time for me and I really appreciated the support. I don't think I want to commit to writing every day every month but it was a great thing to try.

[luzula]

I'm glad it was helpful to you! \o/ And actually I think writing something short to sell your work sounds almost harder than actually writing the work…but good work persevering at it.

[garonne]

Day 25: alibi sentence

Day 26: 900 words

Day 27: 600 words

Day 28: 600 words

for a total of 14k this month.

Thanks so much for running this this month! :)

[luzula]

You're welcome! Is that more of the clockmenders story you're writing now? *awaits it eagerly*

[garonne]

Yes. Mostly outlining the ending at the moment! Thanks for the encouragement!

[osprey_archer]

Is it the end of February already? The month has flown by. Thank you for hosting! And I got my bit of writing in today.

[luzula]

I have no idea how time passes so quickly--time is weird. But anyway, you're welcome, and good work getting your writing in today!

[ljm]

Day 28: Some sentences and notes.

Thank you so much for hosting this month!

[luzula]

You're welcome, and good work writing! : )

[shadaras]

Thank you for hosting this month! <3

Day 28: Notes on a story I should be working on :)

[luzula]

You're welcome! : ) And well done.

[chanter1944]

Roughly 200 words today, and thank you for hosting! :)

[luzula]

You're welcome, and good work today! : )

[bluedreaming]

That’s a great month’s total! Good luck with finishing, and thanks so much for hosting this month.

Feb: wrote an admin post for a writing community I co-mod (new people joining meant adding a new team and reshuffling people).

I didn’t have any goals per se, but I managed to keep up with my three primary drabble comms so that’s a good feeling!

[luzula]

You're welcome, and I'm glad you're happy with what you wrote this month!

All of those 22K were not written in February--I had 10K at the start of the month. But I'm happy with the progress, anyway!

[cornerofmadness]

Day 28 266 words on the novel and 350 words on Digging Up Bones. Thanks for h osting this month

[luzula]

You're welcome, and congratulations on your steady writing this month!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks

[yasaman]

Day 28: an even 100 words on WIP 1 today to close out the month, not much time or focus for more than that.

Thank you for hosting this month!

[luzula]

You're welcome, and congratulations on all the writing you did in February!

[sanguinity]

Feb 28: Words!

Thank you for hosting this month!

[luzula]

You're welcome, and congratulations on the writing you did in February! \o/

[lferion]

28 February -- we made it! 370 words on the TSFW piece, edited and posted under the wire.

[luzula]

Yes, we did! And congratulations on posting your story. : )

[silveradept]

I met my goals for this month, which were mostly "don't drown, and don't get caught by bears"

One last day to check in for, the 28th, a day spent mostly writing work things and a fair amount of code stuff to make something work, and then make it work like it was supposed to.

[luzula]

Glad you are still alive and not drowned or eaten by bears! And good job writing this last day. : )

[ysilme]

Just to be sure: is this your last post for this month, or will you do a "Final Tally" post? Just so I know what to link to in the hosting list!

[luzula]

This is the last post! I've edited the final tally into this one. : )

[ysilme]

Thank you, it's added! :o)
